What’s In this Onion Garlic Bread Recipe?

• Bread: Use gluten free bread if you are coeliac or do not eat gluten
• Garlic: I use fresh garlic when I have it, and this great jarred organic garlic when I don’t have fresh. It’s actually super convenient to have pre-chopped garlic on hand for quick and easy meal prep.
• Garlic Powder: Also a major pantry staple ingredient that get used in our house daily! I love this garlic powder and add it to a lot of recipes that I would use fresh garlic in too.
• Olive Oil: I like to use this fruity Zoe olive oil which has a fantastic flavor and deep color- it’s really inexpensive online here, so I keep a few liters stocked up in my pantry.  For the quality of oil you get, it’s an excellent value, I would highly recommend!
• Red Chili Pepper Flakes: for a little heat in this great side dish recipe.
• Onions
  
• Worcestershire Sauce: for that unbelievably rich umami flavor, but make sure you use a vegan variety if you don’t eat meat (some can contain anchovies).  Annie’s makes a great vegan Worcestershire sauce you can buy here!
• Garlic Salt: for a little extra flavor than traditional salt.  I like to use this garlic salt in my savory Italian dishes for that extra kick.

Make Garlic Bread with Caramelized Onions on a Sheet Pan

This garlic bread with avocado is the perfect sheet pan side dish!  I love a good sheet pan meal, especially during these summer months when the weather starts to turn warmer. Cooking on a sheetpan is one of my favorite ways to get a meal on the table fast!  All the food gets cooked on a single pan, which makes cleaning up a breeze. And the oven does all the work for you, so you can focus on other kitchen prep while the food cooks. Sheetpan meals are awesome for breakfast, lunch, or dinner – check out my link here to see other healthy sheet pan meals that are ready in no time!

How Do I Make Garlic Bread with Onions?

1. Caramelize the Onions: In a Dutch Oven or other heavy lidded pot, add the onions, olive oil, and sea salt.  Saute on low heat, and stir with a wooden spoon for 25 minutes until the onions begin to reduce. After 25 minutes, add the vegan Worcestershire sauce and saute for 5 additional minutes.
2. While the caramelized onions are sauteeing: place the slices of bread on a sheet pan, and set aside.
3. In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, garlic powder, olive oil, and red pepper flakes. Stir well, and set aside.
4. Place the sheet pan with the bread in the oven and broil on low for 2-3 minutes until the top turns lightly brown.
5. Remove bread from oven and flip the bread, so the toasted side is down. Brush each of the slices of bread with the garlic and olive oil mixture, saving about 1/2 of the mixture for later.  Place the bread back into the oven and broil for 2-3 minutes until golden brown, but keep an eye so the bread doesn’t burn.
6. When the garlic bread has finished toasting, top with the caramelized onions, and enjoy warm!
