Slice the onion into thin rings. Heat the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté slowly, stirring, until it caramelizes and turns golden brown.
Add chicken broth to the pot with the onion. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
Slice the baguette into pieces and toast them in the oven or on a dry skillet until crispy.
Fill the ovenproof bowls with soup. Place a slice of baguette on top and sprinkle with grated gruyère cheese. Put in the oven and bake until the cheese melts and is lightly browned.
Onion soup was once considered food for the poor, but thanks to French chefs, it gained the status of a gourmet dish.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh thyme. It pairs perfectly with a glass of white wine.
