Ingredients
2 tbsp (30 mL) butter
2 medium size onions, thinly sliced
1 tbsp (15 mL) all-purpose flour
2 cups (500 mL) reduced-sodium beef broth
French baguette, cut into small cubes
1/2 cup (125 mL) grated Gruyere cheese
Directions
In medium saucepan, melt butter over medium-low heat; sauté onions for about 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly caramelized.
Stir in flour. Increase heat to high, stir in stock and bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally for 20 minutes or until flavours are blended.
Preheat broiler. While soup is simmering, broil baguette cubes until golden and crispy (about 2 minutes). Set aside.
