Preparation

Step 1

In a soup pot, melt butter over medium heat. Add onions and cook 25 minutes, or until golden, stirring occasionally.

Add beef broth, apple cider, and black pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, stir in Parmesan cheese and wine, and cook 3 to 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted and soup is heated through.

Preheat broiler. Place bread on a baking sheet and sprinkle with equal amounts of the Swiss cheese. Broil 3 to 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted.

Pour soup into bowls and top each with a slice of toasted cheese bread; serve.
