Instructions

Thanks for reading! You can find the original recipe and many more on my blog here: http://sallycooks.com/2013/11/14/vidalia-onion-gratin-baked-bloomin-onions/

I scaled the recipe to serve two and added the cornflake topping but this would be great for a crowd if you increased the proportions and made it in a large casserole dish. You could also use bread crumbs in place of cornflakes. I love the sweetness of Vidalia onions with the robust herbs and and crispy, buttery cornflakes. In my husband's words, ”this tastes like a bloomin’ onion!”

What to do:

  • preheat oven to 375 degrees
  • layer onions in a buttered baking dish
  • combine herbs, spices and olive oil, mixing well and pour over each onion
  • combine crushed cornflakes and butter until well mixed and sprinkle over onions
  • bake for 20-30 minutes depending on how large your onions are, they’re ready to serve when they’re tender and translucent and the cornflakes are a golden brown
