Recipe: Weight Watchers Classic French Onion Soup (crock pot)

Soups
CLASSIC FRENCH ONION SOUP

1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon olive oil
3 pounds onions, thinly sliced
2 teaspoons sugar
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 (32 ounce) container reduced-sodium beef broth
1 (32 ounce) container no-salt-added beef broth
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
FOR SERVING
3 ounces soft (mild) goat cheese, at room temperature
3 fresh thyme sprigs plus 2 teaspoons chopped thyme
8 (3/8-inch) slices French baguette, toasted

Heat oil in large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes.

Sprinkle sugar over onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are deep golden brown and well softened, about 35 minutes, adding a bit of water to pot if onions seem dry.

Stir in flour and cook, stirring constantly, until flour is lightly browned, about 2 minutes longer.

Transfer onions to 5- or 6-quart slow cooker. Add broth and pepper.

Cover crock pot and cook until flavors are blended 4-5 hours on HIGH or 8-10 hours on LOW.

Mix together goat cheese and chopped thyme in small bowl. Spread cheese mixture evenly over slices of toast. Ladle soup into 8 bowls; top each serving with a cheese toast.
