Scale
4 red onions, sliced thin
4 tablespoons salted butter
4–6 slices hearty white bread
3 cups shredded Gruyere cheese
1 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons salted butter for dipping broth
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/3 cup apple juice or apple vinegar
1 can beef broth (14.5 oz can)

Instructions
Caramelize the onions in a Dutch oven with butter and sugar over medium heat for about 35 minutes until golden brown.
