My favourite Slow Cooker Gluten-Free French Onion Soup recipe that’s easy to make and full of the richest caramelized onion flavours.
This Slow Cooker Gluten-Free French Onion Soup is a hearty and comforting dish that's perfect for cozy nights in. What makes this recipe stand out is the rich depth of flavour that develops over time in the slow cooker. Caramelized onions, savory broth, and a hint of sweetness come together. They create a beautiful balance of flavours. This dish will warm you up from the inside out.
Traditionally, French onion soup is topped with a crusty baguette and melted cheese. For this gluten-free version, I’ve swapped the baguette for a thick slice of gluten-free sourdough bread. The sourdough provides a slight tangy flavour. It pairs beautifully with the caramelized onions and cheese. This combination elevates the soup to new levels of deliciousness. Place the toasted gluten-free sourdough on top of the soup. Cover it with cheese. Let the cheese melt into the broth for a truly indulgent experience.
The first step in making traditional French onion soup is to caramelize a large pile of raw onions. These onions should be decadent, sweet, and irresistible. This will form the rich base of this recipe. Caramelization is actually a really simple process, but it does take some time. So turn some music on. Pour yourself a glass of the wine we will be using. Get ready to spend some quality time by the stove. We are about to work some onion magic.
