Serves: 4-6
Ingredients
Onions that will fit into a muffin tin
Unsalted butter or olive or vegetable oil
Salt
Pepper
Method
Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F.
Cut the onions in halves - the onion should be thick enough to be able to lift out of the muffin tin when baked.
Place the onion halves in an ungreased muffin tin. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake for 20 minutes.
Melt a few tablespoons of butter, or use oil to baste the onions on top.
Bake again for 40 minutes. About 10 minutes before the end of the baking period, remove the muffin tin from the oven and baste the onions again with melted butter or oil.
Serve hot or at room temperature.
