This savory onion bread is a flavorful combination of caramelized onions, herbs, and cheese, baked into a soft and fluffy loaf. It's perfect for serving alongside soups, salads, or just on its own as a tasty snack. The rich flavors of the onions, herbs, and cheese meld together beautifully in this easy-to-make bread.

Ingredients

  • 2 large onions, thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
  • 1 1/4 cups warm water
  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

Directions

  1. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until caramelized, about 20 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  2. In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water and let stand for 5 minutes until foamy.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Add yeast mixture and caramelized onions. Mix until a dough forms.
  4. Knead dough on a floured surface for 5-7 minutes until smooth. Place in a greased bowl, cover with a towel, and let rise for 1 hour.
  5. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Punch down dough and shape into a loaf. Place in a greased loaf pan.
  6. Sprinkle cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, thyme, and black pepper on top. Bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown.
