Steps

1Thinly slice the yellow onions.
2Melt butter in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-low heat, then add sliced onions and cook slowly for 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until deeply caramelized and soft.
3Stir in all-purpose wheat flour and cook for 1 minute.
4Pour in dry white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot, and cook until the liquid has almost evaporated.
5Add beef broth, fresh thyme, bay leaf, salt, and black pepper, then bring to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes.
6Ladle soup into oven-safe bowls, top each with a slice of baguette and shredded Gruyere cheese.
7Broil for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
