Categories     dinner

Time 1h25m

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 pounds of yellow onions (about 5 large), peeled and sliced (I cut mine in half and then slice them into half moons)
4 tablespoons of olive oil
2 tablespoons of butter (use vegan where applicable)
1 teaspoon of sugar (you can use coconut sugar here if you'd prefer)
1 ½ teaspoons of salt
4 cloves of garlic, minced
8 cups of vegetable broth*
1/2 cup of red wine**
1 tablespoon of Worcestershire***
2 bay leaves
1 tablespoon of fresh thyme (can use dried if desired)
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 slices of French bread (or something similar), cut into thick slices
1 cup of Gruyere cheese, freshly grated (optional or sub for vegan cheese)

Steps:

  • Deglaze the pot by stirring in the red wine and use a wooden spoon to scrap any bits and flavor from the sides and bottom of the pot. Stir in the veggie broth, worchestire sauce, bay leaves, thyme, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer, cover, and cook for 30 minutes. Stir every few minutes.
  • Pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees F. Brush or spray the slices of bread with oil or cooking spray and place on a baking sheet. Toast for 10 minutes, flipping halfway through. You want the bread to be lightly toasted. Once done, set aside.
  • Season soup to taste with additional salt and pepper as needed. Ladle the soup into oven proof bowls, top with the toasted bread, and even sprinkle the cheese across the 4 bowls. Place the bowls on a large baking tray and broil in the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbling around the sides.**
  • Serve immediately and ENJOY!

VEGETARIAN FRENCH ONION SOUP



Vegetarian French Onion Soup image

Most French onion soup recipes call for beef stock, but substituting mushroom broth instead creates a surprisingly rich soup, full on flavor - without the meat. Could become a staple recipe in vegetarian or meat-loving households! A long cooking time and savory ingredients mean this soup is pretty darn rich. Add in the toasted baguette slices and all that gooey Gruyere... this soup is definitely the main course. Serve alongside a crisp, green salad.
