This French Onion Soup Bread Pudding recipe merges the savoury, umami-rich flavours of the soup with the satisfying texture of bread pudding, creating a dish that’s both innovative and comforting. The combination of sweet caramelized onions, nutty Gruyère cheese, and aromatic thyme makes for a delicious twist on two classic favourites.

At first I thought: "Sorry, WHAT???" Then it dawned on me what a terrific, DIFFERENT side dish this would be. It would really be a "head-turner" at a Holiday dinner table. You really dig thinking outside of the box when it comes to food and we all benefit. THANKS!!!
I thought "That's a good idea." Then you added the croutons. I though "That's a GREAT idea." Looks great. Thanks for this one.
I will have to make this for my mom. It is her two favorite things in one!!
Is there an emoji that drools? 😂🤣 I am wondering if I could carmelize my onions and use a package of Stovetop stuffing mix. I am so lazy. Would you cut up the onions for me, love? 😂🤣😎
I love French onion soup, so I was intrigued by this recipe. It looks delicious. Thanks for another great recipe, Rik.
That sounds delicious! Solid soup.
Rik you have lost it here sorry mate🙈🙈🙈
mmmmmmmmmmmmm YES!
What a delicious dish it looks so wonderful I love these cooking segments he does I just love this channel
Well I will definitely try that at the weekend. Thank you very much. 👍🏻💕
transportable! i could bring it to work
I like custard, but not too keen on sweet things, so beef custard, yes please. Bring on the unami 😊
I would never have thought of this but looks marvelous! I have to try this! Love it!
Hi Rik, This is the first time I've seen this recipe made this way, and I've been French for… over 50 years! It's much more liquid and with grated gruyere. I love the day after New Year… before getting back to the aperitif ! But it's a way, no problem for me.
Epic recipe! Love the croutons and cheese on the top with the sauce poured over….MmmMmm
More culinary alchemy from Rik, I’m assuming this is another Chef Rik original, looks delicious. Keep ‘em coming Sir, thanks as always, hope you have a great weekend. Take care xx 👨🏼🍳🧅👍👌😋
Absolutely love this, thank you 🙂
A strange one for sure, but having watched the vlog, I think I will have a go at this one soon. Like you say, not sure what the French would say? Perhaps 'Mon Dieu!' 😂
If you were to put this in individual casseroles and cooked one by one would you reduce the cooking time?
Well Rik you certainly come up with some unique recipes! Not sure on this one. So will half the ingredients to make small one to try. Thank you. And enjoy your weekend! 💕
Haw hee haw hee haw Monsieur Rik. C'est magnifique! Vive la France! 😊 🇨🇵
Another fantastic looking recipe! How could this not be delicious?
I want!!!
You’re a genius !
Another great invention Rik , well done.
Is there any way of doing the onions quicker coz i cant afford to have the hob on for that long but the recipe seems a great cheap meal for my family
Strangely enough, I was going to do pot roast tomorrow with mashed potatoes, but I know what I'm doing for a side now. Thanks Chef, regards from Pensacola!
🇨🇦Well, this was different! I thought you would be making the bread pudding with just a package of Lipton onion soup mix, I should have known better!🤦♀️😅 This bread pudding looks delicious!! I love how you have such different recipes with simple ingredients.
It looks delicious, nice to have a savory bread pudding.👏 Bravo. Well done.
It looks great ❤
This recipe looks absolutely amazing. Might need to add this to my Thanksgiving menu 😋❤
oh ! what a great idea, looks absolutely delicious!
OMG looks so good. Will definitely make this for Thanksgiving at friend's… Bring it or I'd eat it all myself. Funny – Jacques Pepin's french onion soup was offered 'next' by YouTube! 😂
This is a recipe that will make your grandmother remember your name.
That look delicious 🤤 looks way better than a French onion soup 😁 🏴 rule Britannia 🇬🇧 thanks ma duck 🦆
That would be sublime ! … well done chef! Thanks Rik. 🙌🏼🙌🏼.
I am pleased that you give a realistic time for caramelizing onions. Many recipes say it takes 15 minutes 4:04
I’m not a big fan of bread puddings but this, I have to try it.
I would have never in a million yearsthought to do this😮❤
Love the soup so i will love this pudding😍
Thx for sharing ur unique idea❤️
Nice one, Rik.
Just how i like my soup. A solid. Thanks Rik.
Interesting recipe but this chap is trying far too hard, think he's trying to get his own show😂
What a great way to feature caramelized onions 🧅. Love!
You are the BEST CHEF since Julia Child. You are amazing.
What the hell I’ll just go buy the next size in clothes. Lol. Incredible Rik you really are the best. Thanks as always take care. Wonder what’s coming next Omg
I’m not sure about this one. Only way to know is to taste it.
Wow that looks bloody good 👍🏻
Definitely gonna try this one – it does look fantabulistic! Thanks, Rik!
