Steps

Preheat the oven to 400f.

Heat 4 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat.

Add the onions , chopped anchovies , thyme , salt and pepper and cook until the onions are sweet and golden brown , about 20 minutes.

---

Meanwhile , holding the knife parallel to the cutting board , shave off the rounded top and bottom of the baguette with a serrated knife so that it lies flat.

Then cut the baguette in half lengthwise to make 2 long slices of bread.

Brush both sides of each with the remaining 4 tablespoons butter.

When the onions are cooked , put the bread slices on a baking sheet and spread with the onions.

Garnish with olives , drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with parsley.
