STEP BY STEP
Make it
Prepare
Heat oven to 400°F. Line the sheet with parchment and lightly spray it.
Layer
Mix both cheeses and spread evenly. Cut onion into 1/4-inch rounds; arrange without overlapping on the cheese.
Season and bake
Brush onions with oil; sprinkle seasonings. Bake 18–20 minutes until golden, rotating the pan at 10 minutes.
Cool and break
Cool on the pan for about 10 minutes, until firm, then break or cut into pieces.
Good to know
- Cool before lifting; hot melted cheese is not yet crisp.
- Watch the edges toward the end so they do not scorch.
- Refrigerate perishable leftovers promptly.
