Crockpot French Onion Beefloaf

Print Recipe

A comforting dish that combines beef, caramelized onions, and melted Swiss cheese, perfect for family dinners.

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, grated Parmesan cheese, whole milk, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, fine sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper in a large mixing bowl. Mix until well-blended and uniform in texture.
  2. Form the beef mixture into a compact loaf and gently place it at the base of your crockpot, making sure it is evenly shaped.
  3. Melt the unsalted butter in a medium skillet set over medium heat. Once melted, add the sliced yellow onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 20 minutes or until the onions are deeply golden and softened.
  4. Stir in the beef broth with the caramelized onions, allowing them to absorb the liquid and enrich the mixture for an additional 2 minutes.
  5. Spoon the caramelized onion and beef broth mixture evenly over the prepared beefloaf inside 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 let the cheese melt completely.
  8. Slice the beefloaf and serve warm, making sure each portion is generously topped with melted cheese and caramelized onions.

Notes

For extra flavor, consider adding herbs like thyme or rosemary. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days. You can freeze the beefloaf before cooking for up to 2 months.
