Ingredients

• 2 large Yellow onions
• 3 tablespoons Ghee or clarified butter
• 1 cup Coconut cream
• 1 cup Cashew cream
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1.5 teaspoons Onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Sea salt
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh chives (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Peel and thinly slice the onions. It's important to have uniformly thin slices to ensure even caramelization.

Step 2

In a medium-sized skillet, heat 3 tablespoons of ghee over medium heat. Once melted and hot, add the sliced onions.

Step 3

Stir the onions to coat them with ghee, then reduce the heat to low. Cook the onions, stirring occasionally, for 30-35 minutes, or until they're caramelized and golden. Take care not to burn them.

Step 4

Once the onions are caramelized, remove them from the heat and allow them to cool for a few minutes.

Step 5

Meanwhile, in a medium mixing bowl, combine the coconut cream and cashew cream until smooth and well-blended.

Step 6

Stir in the garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and sea salt until evenly distributed.

Step 7

Once the onions are slightly cooled, fold them into the cream mixture until fully incorporated.

Step 8

Cover the dip and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld.

Step 9

Before serving, give the dip a good stir and sprinkle with fresh chives if desired.

Step 10

Serve chilled with a variety of Paleo-friendly dippers like fresh veggies or grain-free chips.
