Typically yellow onions are used but I like to use a variety to give the flavor profile more depth. So I generally will add in a red onion but you can certainly use whatever onions you have on hand. What type of croutons or bread is best for french onion soup? I used a gluten free dairy free baguette that was toasted and broken into croutons before topping on soup. You could also just do slices but I find it easier to eat with crouton sized bread. What's the best cheese for french onion soup? I recommend a good quality cheese that you shred yourself. Some of my favorites are gruyere cheese, swiss cheese, or grand cru cheese. Can I make this ahead of time? Yes. Just store the cooled soup in an airtight container in the fridge and top with croutons and cheese right before serving.This vegetarian french onion soup can be stored without cheesy croutons in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.For longer storage it can be frozen in freezer safe containers or bags 3-4 months.AND IF YOU TRY THIS RECIPE PLEASE BE SURE TO LET ME KNOW IN THE COMMENTS BELOW…..I’d love to hear if you make this &amp; how you like it.

Your recipe is my first time trying French onion soup. It's almost done, and smells heavenly when I just stirred it in the Crockpot. The small samples I had were delicious so far. Can't wait for dinner time.I used Miyoko's Vegan Butter to sub for the butter, and will be using Miyoko's Vegan Liquid Cheese to put on top of gluten free croutons, then broiling to get the browned cheese texture like in a restaurant. Thank you for creating this version that offers options for those of us dealing with allergen issues!ReplyHow many calories?ReplyThis recipe is a game changer for me! I love French Onion soup, but it's almost always made with beef broth at restaurants, so I haven't been able to get it since becoming a vegetarian. This soup is so easy, and so good!ReplyThis soup was wonderful! But it's definitely not enough for 6 servings and DEFINITELY not enough for 8. It filled our crockpot about halfway, and we got four bowls out of it. It was scrumptious though.ReplyDid you put the bowls in the oven to melt the cheese? If so, what temperature and about how long?ReplyHi there, would you happen to know the equivalent cook time for cooking in a pot in stovetop as I don’t have a crockpot? Thanks!ReplyI made this on 12/3/19 with a few minor modifications - doubled the salt and added the same amount of pepper, deglazed the onions with sherry, and added some vegan Worcestershire sauce. It was excellent and such deep flavor! Will be making again soon.ReplyI love this soup thank you so much for the recipe! Just opened this up to make for the 2nd winter in a row. Random question... ingredients list 4 Tbsp of butter but only 2Tbsp for cooking the onions in on the stovetop. When do you use the other 2? I don't think I ever realized I wasn't including them in the crockpot as part of the remaining ingredients or anywhere else when I made this previously! Just wanted to double check! Thanks!ReplyHi! Would this be okay to let sit cooking for a few additional hours? Trying to plan dinner for after work. Thanks!!ReplyCan I double the recipe in the crockpot and use the same amount of cook time? I made the original recipe and it was fantastic! Came to about half way up my crockpot but I underestimated the amount of servings. Thanks 🙂ReplyI tried it and it was easy and great! I used dried thyme so I think I would reduce the amount next time but only because that’s my preference. Definitely will make it again!!ReplyLooks delicious love this french onion soup.ReplyThis vegetarian version looks so much better than the traditional one!ReplyOkay, let me just say that your French onion soup looks way better than what I am used to seeing!ReplyBig fan of French onion soup! Could use a bowl to warm me up today.ReplyI love french onion soup. Your pictures are making my mouth water.ReplyThat cheese! This soup is just mouthwatering!ReplyI'm crazy about French Onion! Love that this is a slow cooker version! I'll give it a try!ReplyI LOVE French onion soup and this recipe looks delicious! Thank you for the recipe, I cannot wait to try it!Reply
