Ingredients

• 2 large Yellow onion
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 medium loaf Baguette
• 1 cup Parmesan cheese
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Peel and thinly slice the onions into even strips.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter with the olive oil.

Step 3

Add the sliced onions, sugar, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir well to combine.

Step 4

Cook the onions on medium heat for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they become golden brown and caramelized. Reduce heat if they begin to burn.

Step 5

While the onions are cooking, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 6

Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch thick diagonal pieces and arrange them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 7

Peel and cut the garlic cloves in half, then rub the cut side onto the surface of each baguette slice for a light garlic flavor.

Step 8

Once the onions are caramelized, set them aside to cool slightly.

Step 9

Sprinkle about a tablespoon of Parmesan cheese onto each baguette slice.

Step 10

Top the cheese with a spoonful of caramelized onions, spreading them evenly over the bread.

Step 11

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the bread edges are golden brown, and the cheese is melted.

Step 12

Remove from the oven, garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired, and serve warm.
