Melt butter in small saucepan. Cook onion until very tender. Remove to large bowl and crumble in cornbread; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper.
Sprinkle turkey breast with more salt and pepper. In small bowl, combine maple syrup, apricot preserves, butter, thyme leaves, and salt and pepper to taste; mix well. Add half this mixture to the cornbread mixture; place in 4-5 quart slow cooker.
