Caramelized Onion, Fig & Goat Cheese Bites - Hey all! Sam back from The Culinary Compass here to bring you your new favorite holiday appetizer. Caramelized Onions, Fig, and Goat Cheese Bites are easy enough to throw together half an hour before your party.

They’ll be sure to be a crowd pleaser too. Any time I’ve made these, they’ve been gone minutes after I put them on the table!

These Caramelized Onions, Fig, and Goat Cheese Bites have a great tanginess from the goat cheese and sweetness from the figs and caramelized onions. I love topping them with really earthy herbs like thyme and rosemary as well. There’s no better topper than balsamic glaze to really make the dish look and taste even better!

Since the goat cheese doesn’t melt all that much, the bites may be a little dry without the balsamic glaze. You could always try it with a little brie if you’re not a goat cheese fan!

I love making Caramelized Onions, Fig, and Goat Cheese Bites in mini muffin pans because they create little cups for all the toppings to make sure and not to fall out of! If you don’t have one, you can still bake them on a cookie sheet with the small squares or rectangles that you cut out. Using silicone mini muffin pans is a great way t
