French Onion Stuffed Potatoes

A delicious twist on baked potatoes, stuffed with caramelized onions, melted cheese, and savory herbs.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 4 large russet potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 1 cup shredded Gruyère cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Scrub potatoes and pierce with a fork. Bake for 45-50 minutes until tender.
  2. While potatoes bake, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onions, sugar, salt, and pepper. Cook for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until caramelized.
  3. Add beef broth to the onions and simmer for 5 minutes until liquid reduces slightly. Remove from heat and stir in thyme.
  4. Cut baked potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop out the flesh, leaving a 1/4-inch shell. Mash the potato flesh with butter.
  5. Mix the mashed potatoes with the caramelized onion mixture. Stuff the potato shells with the filling.
  6. Top with Gruyère and Parmesan cheeses. Broil for 3-5 minutes until cheese is bubbly and golden.
