Baked Onion and Garlic Cream Soup.

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

This Baked Onion Soup is perhaps the best soup I have ever tasted. It is absolutely delicious and as soon as the weather cools, never far away from my thoughts. Everything about it floats my chilly weather boat from the taste to the texture, to the colour, it is just so good.

Recently I have been searching  for soup recipes that are delicious and comforting as I still hanker for some Autumnal comfort food to lift the mood.....and I have found it.

In fact I would say that enduring all the chilly weather has been worth it to find this incredible Onion Soup. There is something so special about it I would not hesitate to award a Homemade Michelin Star here.

It tastes like something a posh restaurant would serve and it comes right out of your own baking tray.....it is sensational.

As the nights close in and the weather drastically chills I think we all feel the need for a warm house and slippers. This Baked Onion Soup is just that in a bowl.

It is a juxtaposition of a soup. It is a taste sensation but in a very quiet way. It's flavours are large but gentle. A kind of loving hug from a giant and who could ever say no to that?

It is soft, so velvety and perfect for a Xmas or Sunday Lunch starter. I think it is my favourite soup ever. It just has to be.

Try pairing it with these Best Bread Rolls, Garlic Rolls, warm Cheese Scones or Cheese and Onion Scones for a real treat.

The soup is indeed heavy on the garlic but roasted garlic has the most mellow flavour that no longer packs a punch just a friendly cuddle. It is really wonderful stuff and gives the deepest flavour.

The method behind this soup is crazily simple. It all happens in a roasting tray followed by a blitz in a blender. 

I challenge anybody to not fall in love on the spot.

This soup is incredible.It is velvety and rich, perfect for the colder weather when the need for warming comfort is great. It is an absolute doddle to make and obvs can be made ahead and sit there waiting patiently for some heat. Seriously enjoy.
