- 4 large onions thinly sliced
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 4 cups beef or vegetable broth
- 1 cup dry white wine
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 8 slices of baguette
- 1 cup grated Gruyère cheese
Heat butter and olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add sliced onions and cook until softened, about 10 minutes.
Sprinkle sugar over the onions and continue cooking until caramelized, about 20 minutes.
Pour in the white wine, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
Add broth and bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
While soup simmers, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Arrange baguette slices on a baking sheet and toast until golden.
In oven-safe bowls, ladle soup and top with toasted baguette and cheese.
Bake in the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 10 minutes.
