   Prepare the Onions

   Slice the yellow onions thinly.

   Once the onions are caramelized, add the bone broth, thyme, bay leaf, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for an additional 20 minutes.

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

   Remove the bay leaf from the soup. Ladle the soup into oven-safe bowls, top each with a toasted baguette slice, and sprinkle gruyere cheese generously on top.

   Place the bowls under the broiler until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown (about 2-3 minutes).
