Parmesan onion puffs

Parmesan onion puffs are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that combines the sharp flavor of Parmesan cheese with the subtle sweetness of onions. This bite-sized treat is perfect for any gathering or as a quick snack to satisfy your cravings.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup mayonnaise salad dressing
120g
2 oz grated parmesan cheese
54g
1/8 tsp red pepper (spice)
0.22g
10 slices white bread
250g
1 tbsp onion
10g

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare Bread:
- Take the 10 slices of white bread and trim off the crusts.
- Cut each slice into four squares or rounds using a cookie cutter to your preferred shape (optional).
3. Make the Mixture:
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the mayonnaise, grated Parmesan cheese, finely chopped onion, and red pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly blended.
4. Assemble Puffs:
- Place the bread pieces on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased to prevent sticking.
- Spoon a small amount of the mayonnaise mixture onto each piece of bread, spreading it evenly to cover the top.
5. Bake:
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven.
- Bake for about 8-10 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and bubbly.
6. Serve:
- Remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
- Serve warm as an appetizer or snack.

Tips:

- For the best results, use freshly grated Parmesan cheese instead of pre-packaged variants for a richer flavor.

- If you don't have white bread, you can substitute it with any type of bread you prefer, such as whole wheat or sourdough.

- To make sure the bread doesn't get too soggy, lightly toast it before adding the topping.

- Add a touch of fresh herbs like parsley or chives for an extra burst of flavor.

- Feel free to adjust the amount of red pepper according to your taste preferences for a spicier or milder kick.

- Make sure to preheat your oven to the correct temperature to ensure even baking and a perfect puff.

- Cut the bread into uniform sizes for even cooking and an aesthetically pleasing presentation.

These Parmesan onion puffs are sure to be a hit at any party or event. The combination of mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, and onions creates a flavorful and creamy topping that's hard to resist. Serve them warm and watch them disappear!
