  • 3-4 large sweet organic onions cut in half and sliced 1/8-1/4 inch thick
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1-2 tablespoons coconut sugar depending how sweet onions are
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 cloves garlic minced

  • 4 cups beef bone broth

Instructions

  1. In the bowl of a crockpot melt butter.  Add sliced onions, coconut sugar, 1/2 tsp. salt.  Stir to coat onions.  Add minced onions to the top of the onions.
  2. Cook on low for 6 hours. Stirring every 30 minutes or so.
  3. Add broths, sprigs of fresh thyme and 1 bay leaf.  
  4. Cover and continue to cook on low for an additional 8 hours.
  5. Before serving add Worcestershire sauce to taste.  Season with salt and white pepper and additional fresh herbs.

Recipe Notes

  • Soup can cook for as long as 12 hours on low.
  • I like to cook the onions during the day, then add the broth and cook through the night.  
  • Soup can be cooled and refrigerated for 3-4 days.  Reheat when ready to serve.
