Directions
Step 1
Slice the onions thinly, ensuring they are of uniform thickness to cook evenly.
Step 2
In a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat until the butter is melted.

Sprinkle the sugar over the onions and stir again to mix.

Reduce the heat to low and cook the onions for about 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and caramelized.

While the onions are cooking, preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.

Place the gluten-free cheese brats on the grill and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and have nicely browned grill marks.
Step 8
Lightly toast the gluten-free brat buns on the grill for about 1-2 minutes until they are warmed and slightly crispy.
Step 9
Once the onions are caramelized, season them with salt and black pepper to taste and stir well.
