I L.O.V.E onions. All kinds of onions! Green onions, white, yellow, red, pearl onions!
When I saw Lynne at The Actors Diet posted on making caramelized onions in the crock pot, I knew I had to try it! I love caramelized onions, it just takes so long on the stove!
This is super easy and delicious!
Caramelized Onions in the Crock Pot
Slightly adapted from Lynne at The Actors Diet
Print this recipe!
Serves 4-6, depending on how many onions you want!
4 onions, peeled and sliced
nonstick spray
Spray the inside of your crockpot with nonstick spray.
Take 4 large onions, and peel and slice them.
Yes, it will look like a lot of onions!
Cook on high 5-6 hours. Stir occasionally – I stirred when I thought of it – maybe once every 1 1/2 hours or so.
Reduce heat to low and cook 1-2 hours. I tilted the lid to let some of the moisture escape.
I decided to serve the onions on top of a pork chop.
I think onions get so sweet when you cook them. Yum!
Question: Are you an onion hater? Or an onion lover?
I am the lover, we eat onions every day, and on the days we don’t have to go anywhere, I can eat onions three times a day. Love, love, love it! Come see what I made http://www.cowboycountryvegetarian.blogspot.com. Which one do you like?
Yeah, at least I’m not the only onion lover! I used to eat onion sandwiches for breakfast with the sweet Vidalia onions … mmmm!!!
That reminds me of an onion salad my mother makes, very tasty. Did you see my pasta? I was thinking of you when I added cheese to it…:)

I adore onions, especially caramelized onions. This is genius!
I know, how can you now love anything with the word “carmel” in it??
Yum…yum….yum… do I need to say anymore?
When I was younger, I hated onions, and I could not understand why or how anyone could like them and actually eat them on purpose!
Now…I’m the opposite…I love them, any way I can think of preparing them!
The crock pot prep sounds so good…
Funny how tastes change as you get older isn’t it??
Lover all the way! This is a FANTASTIC idea. Gah…drool
I love caramelized onions, and was so happy when I found this method. I made a huge batch and froze in the 1 cup servings to have one hand when the urge hits.
That’s a great idea! Cause I have all these onions I was wondering what to do with
