 French Onion 🧅 soup in a bread bowl 

Using a mandolin can really help in getting uniformity with the onions so the all cook at the same time evenly.


I round large sourdough bread

           1/2 cup garlic butter melted

4-6 tablespoons butter

                 2 Tbsp flavored Olive Oil

1 1/2 white onions, halved and sliced 1/4-inch thick

2 sprigs thyme or 1/2 tsp dried

3 cloves garlic, minced

1/4-1/2  cup cooking red wine or burgundy 

1/2 cup beef broth

1/2 cup cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup sour cream

3/4 cup Gruyere cheese and added Mexican blend 1/4 cup 

Salt and pepper to taste

slices Swiss cheese


Cut the bread in 1/4 spread garlic butter inside of small bowl/cup, lid and insides. Lay out on parchment lined large cookie sheet. Bake in 350 degree oven just until toasted. You can use the broiler as well, just watch closer.
