Butter and sweet onions are all you need for these warm, flavor-packed sandwiches.

  • 4

Ingredients

  • 8 slices white sandwich bread
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1/2 small sweet onion, sliced into 1/8-inch-thick rounds
  • Flaky sea salt
  • Coarsely ground black pepper
  • Chopped parsley (for serving)
  • A 3 1/2-inch-diameter cookie cutter

Preparation

Step 1

Using cutter, punch a round from each slice of bread. Spread both sides with butter and top 4 rounds with 2 onion slices each; season with salt and pepper. Close sandwiches.

Heat a large skillet, preferably nonstick, over medium-high and cook sandwiches until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side (onion will soften slightly). Top with parsley and more salt.
