How to cook deliciously - French Dip Bites

1. Stage

Preheat oven to 375° and grease a mini muffin tin with cooking spray. Melt 2 tbsp butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in onion and 1 thyme sprig. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions begin to soften and turn slightly golden. Season with salt and pepper and reduce heat to medium. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the onions are soft and caramelized. Remove from heat.

On a lightly floured surface, roll out crescent dough, and pinch seams together. Cut into 24 squares. Place squares into muffin tin slots.

3. Stage

Place a dab of mustard, a small amount of caramelized onion, a square of cheese and a piece of roast beef into every crescent cup. Place into the oven and bake until crescent is golden and cheese is melted, about 15 minutes.
