Ingredients

  • 1 sheet of puff pastry (thawed, if frozen)
  • 4 oz blue cheese, crumbled
  • 1 cup fig preserves
  • 1 cup caramelized onions see recipe, below

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out puff pastry until it's 1/4" thick.
  • Spread the fig preserves evenly over the puff pastry, but leaving 1/4" border on all sides of the dough.
  • Spread the caramelized onions on top of the fig preserves, again making sure the clean border is preserved.
  • Now sprinkle the crumbled blue cheese evenly over the onion layer.
  • Working on one long side of the dough, roll it up carefully and somewhat tightly to the center of the dough. Repeat that with the other long side, making sure the two rolls meet in the center.
  • Cover the rolled dough to prevent drying out and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Remove the dough from the refrigerator and slice into 1/2" slices across the rolls and place on a baking sheet, 1" apart, prepared with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
  • Bake slices for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the puff pastry is a deep golden brown. Cool slightly before serving.
