Easy Classic French Onion Soup

INGREDIENTS

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 5 large yellow onions, thinly sliced
• 1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
• 2 tablespoons all purpose flour (or gluten free flour)
• 3 cloves garlic, finely minced
• ½ cup dry white wine (or beef broth), for deglazing the pan
• 7-8 cups beef broth, depending on how brothy you like your french onion soup (can also use bone broth)*
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
• Freshly ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon worcheshire sauce
• 1 bay leaf

For the baguettes

• 1 demi french baguette, cut into 1 inch thick slices
• 1 tablespoon butter
• Garlic powder
• 8 ounces Gruyere cheese, thickly shredded

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Melt the olive oil and butter in a large dutch oven or pot over medium heat. 
2. Add in the onions and salt and stir to coat the onions with the butter. 
3. Cook onions, stirring occasionally; check onions every 10-15 minutes until they have completely caramelized and turned golden in color. This usually takes 30-40 minutes total. If the onions appear to be getting too dark or sticking too much to the bottom of the pan, then simply reduce the heat a bit.
