Ingredients

Servings

• 3 medium-sized Yellow onions
• 2 medium-sized Red onions
• 2 medium-sized Leeks
• 2 tablespoon Butter
• 2 tablespoon All-purpose flour
• 4 cups Vegetable broth
• 1 cup Dry white wine
• 3 sprigs Fresh thyme
• 1 Bay leaf
• 4 slices French baguette

3. Add the white wine and cook for another 2 minutes, allowing the alcohol to evaporate.

5. While the soup is simmering, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
6. Ladle the soup into oven-safe bowls. Top each bowl with a slice of French baguette and sprinkle with grated Gruyere cheese.
7. Place the bowls on a baking sheet and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
8. Remove from the oven and let the soup rest for 10 minutes before serving.
