1. In large, heavy pot or skillet, warm 1/4 cup olive oil over medium-low heat.

3. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

4. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

5. Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet and brush on both sides with the remaining 2 T olive oil.

9. Remove the leaves from the remaining thyme sprig and chop.

10. Top each toast with the carmelized onions and chopped thyme.
