WHOLE BAKED ONIONS

Ingredients

• 2 pieces Yellow Onion (medium size, Vidalia or regular yellow, top and bottom trimmed, peeled)
• 1 cube Gluten‑Free Bouillon Cube (beef or chicken flavor, gluten‑free)
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter (softened, cut into small pieces)
• 1 teaspoon Seasoning (optional) (chicken seasoning, BBQ seasoning, or any favorite blend)

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven

   Set the oven to 350°F (175°C) and let it preheat while you prepare the onions.

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: 350°F

2. Trim and Peel Onions

   Cut off the top and bottom of each onion so it sits flat, then peel off the outer skin.

   Time: PT5M

3. Create Onion Cavity

   Using the paring knife, cut a shallow cone about 1 inch deep into the center of each onion, removing the inner layers to form a hollow.

   Time: PT5M

4. Season the Onions

   Place the bouillon cube (or 1 tsp powdered bouillon) into each cavity, then add 1‑2 tbsp softened butter and mash it in to coat the interior.

   Time: PT3M

5. Wrap in Foil

   Wrap each seasoned onion tightly in a sheet of regular aluminum foil, sealing all edges. Place the foil‑wrapped onions on a rimmed baking sheet or a glass baking dish.

   Time: PT2M

6. Bake the Onions

   Bake in the preheated oven at 350°F for about 1 hour, or until the onions are very tender and the interior is fragrant. If you prefer a deeper caramelization, you can increase the temperature to 400‑425°F and bake for 45‑50 minutes, checking for doneness.

   Time: PT1H

   Temperature: 350°F

7. Finish and Serve

   Remove the onions from the oven, carefully open the foil (steam will be hot), stir any remaining bouillon on top, and serve immediately while hot and tender.

   Time: PT4M
