Steps:
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil and the butter. Once the butter melts add the onions. Sauté the onions, stirring occasionally, until they are light golden brown. Add the salt and continue to cook and stir until the onions are well caramelized, about 20 minutes.
- While the onions sauté, core and dice the apples (without peeling them). Combine the diced apples, cinnamon, and sugar in a bowl.
- Add the apples to the skillet with the onions and sauté until the apples just begin to soften. Do not overcook. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Heat the oven to 350°F. Lightly spray two mini muffin tins with oil and set them aside.
- Unroll the 14"x18" package of filo and, with a sharp knife, cut it in half length-wise, leaving you with two stacks of 14"x9" sheets of filo. You will only need one of the stacks, so roll up the other, wrap it tightly with plastic wrap, and return to the refrigerator.
- Place one sheet of filo on a clean surface with the longest side in front of you. Brush with some of the melted butter to coat. Place a second sheet of filo on top of the first and butter it again. After that, repeat with a third sheet and then a fourth (keep the rest of the filo covered while you work so it won't dry out.). Cut the stack of four filo sheets into 3 strips horizontally. Then, cut the fillo strips 4 times vertically, forming 12 squares, each about 3"x3". Lift each square of filo and gently place in a mini muffin tin hole. Repeat with the rest of the squares. Place a heaping spoonful of the onion and apple filling and top with some grated cheese. Repeat with a second stack of four filo sheets and fill the second mini muffin tin.
- Bake for about 15 minutes or until the cheese is melted. Remove from the oven. Let cool slightly and then lift the fillo nests onto a serving platter. Serve at once.

CARAMELIZED ONION AND GOAT CHEESE FILO SQUARE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat.
- Put the bacon in a small skillet and cook until crisp; drain.
- Put the brown sugar, red onions and 4 tablespoons of the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until the onions are tender, 6 to 8 minutes, then add the fig jam and 2 tablespoons of the balsamic vinegar. Continue cooking until the onions are caramelized, another 15 minutes. Remove from the stove and set aside.
- Put 2 sheets of the filo dough on the prepared baking sheet; brush with melted butter. Add 2 more sheets; brush again with butter. Repeat until you have done this 4 times. Then sprinkle with the goat cheese, spread with the caramelized onions and sprinkle the bacon on top. Repeat with filo as for the bottom layers (4 layers of filo, 2 sheets per layer).
- Cut into squares and bake until golden, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, pour the remaining 3/4 cup balsamic vinegar and the bourbon into a saucepan over medium-high heat; reduce by half, 8 to 10 minutes. Whisk in the cayenne.
- Serve two filo squares to a plate, drizzle with balsamic sauce and enjoy.
CARAMELIZED ONION BITES
Delicious & Impressive Appetizer! The recipe calls for a Smoked Gouda; but you can substitute ant semi-firm, easy melting cheese (Mozzarella, Cheddar, Swiss) You can make these ahead of time and freeze them before baking. Do not thaw before baking...just bake for 25 minutes. These are To-Die-For!
