Time 1h30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons buttery spread (such as Smart Balance®)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 pounds onions, halved and thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
6 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
⅓ cup dry sherry
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon sherry vinegar
6 slices sourdough bread, toasted
⅔ cup shredded vegan cheese

Steps:

  • Heat buttery spread and oil in a large, heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add onions, garlic, and salt. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring often. Reduce heat to very low and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are very tender and brown, 50 to 60 minutes.
  • Add flour and cook, stirring constantly, for 3 to 4 minutes. Blend in broth, sherry, and Dijon mustard. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes. Stir in sherry vinegar.
  • Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Ladle soup into 6 oven-proof bowls. Top each bowl with a slice of toast and some vegan cheese. Broil until cheesy is bubbly and golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve hot.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover bread. I always have a loaf of crusty bread on hand, so this soup is a lifesaver.
