For an even richer flavor, consider adding a splash of dry sherry or red wine during the last few minutes of simmering. If you prefer a smoother soup, you can use an immersion blender to partially blend the soup before serving, but be careful not to over-blend it. Garnish with fresh thyme or parsley for an extra touch of freshness.

Follow The Directions
01
StepMelt the butter in a 4-quart saucepan over medium heat. (2 minutes)
02
StepAdd the sliced onions and cook, stirring frequently, until they are deeply browned and caramelized. (Approximately 15-20 minutes)
03
StepStir in the sweet onion soup and beef consommé. Pour the water into the consommé can to capture any remaining flavor, then add it to the saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil. (5 minutes)
04
StepReduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. (10 minutes)
05
StepWhile the soup simmers, preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Arrange the garlic Texas toast slices on an ungreased baking sheet. (2 minutes)
06
StepBake in the preheated oven until the toast is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly, about 2-3 minutes per side. (4-6 minutes)
07
StepLadle the soup into bowls and top each with a slice of the cheesy garlic Texas toast. Serve immediately and enjoy! (2 minutes)
