In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the sliced onions and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 30-40 minutes until the onions are caramelized and golden brown.

Caramelize the Onions

Add minced garlic to the pot and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Pour in the beef broth, and add thyme and bay leaf. Bring to a simmer and let it cook for 30 minutes.

Add Garlic and Broth

Remove the bay leaf, then season the soup with salt and black pepper to taste. Keep the soup warm on low heat.

Season the Soup

While the soup is simmering, slice the baguette into 1-inch thick slices and toast until golden brown.

Prepare the Baguette

Ladle the soup into oven-safe bowls. Place a toasted baguette slice on top of each bowl and sprinkle generously with Gruyère cheese. Broil in the oven for 5-7 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
