Crockpot French Onion Beefloaf

Indulge in the rich, savory flavors of Crockpot French Onion Beefloaf, combining ground beef with caramelized onions and Swiss cheese for a comforting meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 900 grams ground beef
  • 120 grams breadcrumbs
  • 50 grams grated Parmesan cheese
  • 60 milliliters whole milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 15 milliliters Worcestershire sauce
  • 5 grams fine sea salt
  • 2 grams freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 large yellow onions
  • 28 grams unsalted butter
  • 240 milliliters beef broth
  • 8 slices Swiss cheese

Instructions

  1. Combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, milk, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Mix thoroughly until uniform.
  2. Shape the beef mixture into a compact loaf and gently place it in the bottom of the crockpot.
  3. Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 20 minutes or until they are deeply golden and softened.
  4. Stir the beef broth into the caramelized onions, allowing the mixture to absorb and enrich for 2 minutes.
  5. Spoon the caramelized onion and broth mixture evenly over the beefloaf in the crockpot.
  6. Cover the crockpot and cook on low heat for 360 to 480 minutes or until the loaf is cooked through and the juices run clear.
  7. Layer the Swiss cheese slices on top of the hot beefloaf about 10 minutes before serving. Cover and allow the cheese to melt completely.
  8. Slice the beefloaf and serve warm, topped with melted cheese and caramelized onions.

Notes

Ensure the onions are well-caramelized for the best flavor; this allows their natural sweetness to shine.
