Makes 8

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 cup Sweet onion, thinly sliced
• 1/2 teaspoon thyme, dried
• 1/4 cup plain yogurt
• 1/4 cup goat cheese
• 12, 1/2” thick slices of a baguette
• 1/4 cup blueberry compote (recipe below)
• 12 pecan halves

Directions

1. In a medium sauté pan heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until well caramelized, about 10 minutes, stir occasionally. Remove from heat and set aside.
2. In a small bowl mix the yogurt and goat cheese until well incorporated.
3. Turn your oven on to broil. Place the baguette slices on a cookie sheet and drizzle a little olive oil over the top. Place in the broiler and toast for about 2-4 minutes, watch carefully they will easily burn. Remove from the oven.
4. Once the baguette has cooled, spread the yogurt/goat cheese mixture evenly over each slice. On top of the spread, place a dollop of blueberry compote, a pinch of caramelized onions and finish with a pecan half.
5. Serve.
