Serves 6–8

For the Dish:

  • 4 large sweet onions (Vidalia or Walla Walla work best), thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp sugar (optional, to enhance caramelization)
  • Salt and pepper , to taste
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder (optional, for extra flavor)

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) . Lightly grease a baking dish (about 8×8 inches or similar size).

Step 2: Caramelize the Onions

  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter with the olive oil. Add the sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for 15–20 minutes , until they soften and turn golden brown.
  2. Sprinkle the sugar over the onions during the last 5 minutes of cooking to enhance caramelization. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
