Crock Pot French Onion Soup Recipe

Instructions

1 In a 6-quart slow cooker, place the melted butter, sliced onions, minced garlic,
thyme, kosher salt, and black pepper. Cover and cook on the high setting for 5
to 7 hours. Stir occasionally to ensure even caramelization of the onions until
they reach a golden, caramelized consistency.
2 Once the onions are well-cooked, pour in the beef broth and white wine. Cover
once again and continue cooking on high for an additional 30 minutes.
3 While the soup finishes, prepare the bread. Position an oven rack about 6 inches
from the broiler, then preheat the broiler. Arrange the French bread slices on a
baking sheet, and lightly brush both sides with olive oil. Broil the bread for 2
to 3 minutes per side, closely monitoring and rotating the pan as needed to
avoid burning. Remove the toasted slices from the oven.
4 When the soup is done, ladle it evenly into 4 oven-safe bowls or ramekins. Top
each serving with 2 or 3 slices of the toasted bread, and sprinkle about 2
tablespoons of shredded Gruyere cheese over each bowl.
5 Place the filled bowls on a baking sheet, then broil for about 2 minutes until
the cheese is melted, golden, and bubbling. Keep a close watch to prevent
over-browning. Sprinkle each serving with a pinch of salt and black pepper, and
serve piping hot.
