Absolutely yummy! I added a bit of fresh nutmeg to mine. This is basically a crustless onion quiche, and it is SO flavorful! Be sure to drain all of the butter/oil off of the cooked onions before adding them to the cream mixture. Sprinkle sweet paprika and dried parsley over the top for lovely color.

A great side dish! A unanimous Easter dinner hit! No leftovers and the recipe went home with two happy families. I think next time I just might try decreasing the amount of butter by 1-2 tablespoons. (Howevewr, I can always go back to the original recipe if that is not satisfactory.)
I made this as a side dish for Passover dinner and it was delicious. The only adjustment was I used fat free half and half instead of cream to cut down on calories.
Made this last night and was pleasantly surprised! Tasted really good. I think I could've sliced more than 4 cups worth, though. I'm glad I used a 1 1/2 qt instead of a 2 qt casserole dish. I should have probably used a 1 qt dish. Be sure to use the 2/3 cup Parmesan. It gives a nice crunch.
Delicious and easy onion dish! I make it every year for Thanksgiving.
Used FF half-n-half, added a squirt of dijon and a little Frank's Hot Sauce. YUM. This would make an excellent starter for macaroni and cheese or thickened up, a good dip.
I can't get over how delicious this easy-to-prepare onion dish was. Make it per the instructions, and double the recipe, because it will *all* get eaten.
I made this to accompany a nice filet mignon. Made it as specified but added about a 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper. Not necessarily something I would serve in large quatities as a side but a very nice to accompaniment to any steak.
I'm basically not allowed in the door at holidays now unless I have this dish with me! It's the best...even people that don't care for onions love this!! VERY highly recommended!!
Outstanding!! This was so delicious on our Thanksgiving turkey & all mixed up w/my mashed potatoes. I'll be making this often. It's been gone for 2 days & I'm craving it again already. Thank you!!
such a great recipe, definitely no need for all that butter though, melting enough to coat the pan before sautéing onions is PLENTY, I like to keep the onions a little bit undercooked before putting them into the oven where they finish up and have the best texture. definitely a staple dish prepared at all holidays in my family and whenever we roast chicken. sooo good and simple
This simple yet wonderful recipe earned me raves for Thanksgiving. Everyone wanted the recipe!
This was kind of gross. The flavor was okay but the texture terrible. Won't make this again.
This will become a traditional dish at holiday gatherings, it was great.
These were so good!! Better than I expected. Made them for my family and then reheated them the next night in the oven for some guests. They were great then too!! One guest said he doesn't even like onions and he had 3 plates full! Great & Easy recipe!!
I made this to take to a church potluck, I added some garlic powder and celery salt to the heavy whipping cream mixture. I got rave reviews from everybody there, but it just still seemed like something was missing and was a little too oniony... I will probably make it again but experiment more with it.
I've made this recipe twice and each time was a great hit. I followed the recipe to a "T" but added 2 more onions to it. The only thing I found that it isn't a good leftover addition to the next days meal. It just doesn't have the same flavour. This recipe is a huge keeper but will not keep leftovers.
Delicious. I made this dish three times now for different guests and it always gets very good feedbacks. I use the recipe per instructions, doubled the onions, though, since there is not much left of the onions after cooking them tender. Im wondering if it shouldn't say "4 sliced onions" instead of "4 cups sliced onions"? Use leftovers the next day to top pork chops - a treat! Thanks for this great and easy recipe, Christine!
Good recipe. I didn't have heavy cream, so I used half and half, and it turned out just fine. I think I should have added parsley or something to it to make it look a little more festive and not so bland, but overall it was very good.
We are members of a local food co-op and while it is wonderful we sometimes get an excess of certain produce that we can't use quickly enough. Onions this time. I made this for my husband and we both loved it!!!! It will probably be a side for Holiday gatherings. It could also be a great dip if the onions are cut small enough. (1 side note, this recipe caused a lot of gas)
Do it!! You'll like this even if you're not real fond of onions!
love it! I won best dish at an "O" food dish pot luck party the first time i made this dish!
Crustless onion quiche. Great way to use up a bunch of onions. I just used whole milk because that’s what I had. I’m sure would be better with heavy cream but was just fine. Couldn’t taste the Parmesan at all. May try another cheese next time. I will be making again.
I used more onions that it called for with the same amount of sauce and it was plenty moist. May have been soupy with just the recipe amount. Served it Thanksgiving and didn't have leftovers!
I like that it didn't taste so egg-y. I actually ran out of parmesan cheese and had to use mozzarella instead and it turned out great!
I only changed the amount of butter as I had the onions cooking with olive oil when I found the recipe. I added a tablespoon of butter to the pan of onions, and proceeded with the recipe as written. I really like it, and will make it again.
Truly delicious, and so simple too! That's a winner in my book. This dish could be a side to so many meals, or even as a topping on a jacket potato like I had last night. So versatile. It's a keeper, thanks!
ver simple and very good
Made as a special treat for the family. I accidentally subbed Romano for the Parmesan (didn't pay enough attention at the grocery) and it was still delicious. Will definitely be making again - thanks do much for sharing!
This was delicious! Thanks for this recipe, I will make this again.
I thought my brother-in-law was going to scrape the finish off my casserole dish trying to get all the leftovers out. Made exactly as the recipes states and was a huge hit. Brother-in-law wants 2 made for Thanksgiving!!!
I tried this because I had a bag of onions that needed to be used soon. I substituted half-n-half for the heavy cream, and added cooked, crumbled bacon (about 1 lb uncooked, half that would have been enough). Hubby raved over it, flavor was great, surprisingly rich. We will make this again!
We've added this one three years ago to our holiday dinner menu.Everyone who tries it asks for it again and again.
I have made this many times and it is always a hit at family gatherings.
These were soooo good. I will make again. I made this recipe as directed and it tasted great. I don't think I would add anything more to it. New favorite side dish.
This was good. I think, to add a little flavor and color, I will add a small jar of pimientos next time.
The directions are really lacking. I don’t know if I was supposed to beat the eggs to foamy with a mixer? Or just mix them together? I tried just mixing the two eggs together and added the cup of cream and it’s been in the oven 40 minutes without setting up yet.

I followed the receipt except I used Cheddar/Colby Jack cheese because that what I had and sprinkled some Panko bread crumbs on top. It turned out very good!
I have made this twice and it is absolutely delicious. It isn't overly onion-y (although I do love onions) and it's incredibly creamy. The parmesan on top really adds to the richness. I did see a few complaints about it being soupy but you do absolutely have to drain the onions first. I just line a bowl with a few paper towels and put the onions on the paper towels in the bowl and let the butter soak out while I mix the cream and eggs. A little freshly ground black pepper goes well on it too.
