Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 medium yellow onion, diced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or 1/4 cup water/vegetable broth
  • 1 1/4 cups vegan sour cream or 1 tub (12oz) tofutti sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon vegan Worcestershire (see notes)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • mineral salt, to taste
  • chopped parsley, to serve

Instructions

Onions: Heat the oil/water in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and saute for 10-15 minutes, stirring every few minutes. Add a little bit of water/veggie broth and let it sizzle and evaporate. Keep stirring every so often, add more liquids. After about 25 – 30 minutes, onions should be caramelized and fragrant.

Mix: Combine the vegan sour cream with the garlic & onion powder and Worcestershire sauce. Add the onions and mix well. Taste for seasoning.

Serve: Serve topped with chopped parsley. Pair your french onion dip with chips, crackers, and/or sliced vegetables.

Makes about 1 3/4 cups.

Store leftovers, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 6 days.

Notes

If you don’t have vegan worcestershire on hand, try a little tamari, soy sauce or coconut aminos. You’ll definitely want to add one of these ingredients as it adds a wonderful umami flavor, pairing well with the sweet, caramelized onions!
