Large Onions | 4 |
Shredded Gruyère Cheese | 2 cups |
Beef Broth | 1 cup |
Breadcrumbs | 1 cup |
Instructions:
- Preheat: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Caramelize Onions: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sliced onions until they are soft and caramelized, about 20-25 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.
- Assemble: Transfer the caramelized onions to a baking dish and spread them evenly. Pour the beef broth over the onions, ensuring they are well-coated. Sprinkle the shredded Gruyère cheese evenly over the onions. Top with breadcrumbs, spreading them out to cover the cheese layer.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
- Cool: Allow to cool slightly before serving.
