Savory Onion Bread Recipe

I have always loved onions and for a long time I didn’t really know the difference in all of the different kinds. After a bit of experimentation, I started finding I preferred some onions over others. I’m so excited to be partnering with one of my favorites – Vidalia Onions – on this sponsored recipe!

When I am looking for sweet onions to use in a recipe or serve in a salad or on a burger, I always look for the Vidalia sticker so I know that I am getting real Vidalia onions and not a substitution! Turns out that I am not the only one who loves sweet onions, they represent the largest segment of onions sold every year. And Vidalia onions represent 62% of all of those sweet onion sales, so you KNOW they are good! They are also the most recognized sweet onion brand because of their association with a sweet flavor and mild taste.

Vidalia onions are grown in South Georgia where the weather, water and soil all work to create that unique mild flavor. They are grown by about 100 growers in 20 counties and most of those are family-run, multigenerational operations. Those farmers largely hand plant and harvest each onion. Those same onions can be found in your local grocery store from mid-April through August.

While you have those fabulous Vidalia onions at your disposal, why not make this delicious and savory Onion Bread?

    Oh wow! I would like to try this. A savory bread is sooo good. Such a nice twist to the usual sweat breads 😀 Not cloying at all. I wonder how my kids would take it though

    I always look for a good onion bread recipe! This seems like just the one I need to try! What can I substitute for carrots, what do you think?

      Hmmm – there aren’t any carrots in it so you should be good.

    Light soft crumb. Very very tasty. Since it’s not a yeast bread it tends my palate to think biscuit. I love this bread. Really fine diced the onion, afraid of the flavor overpowering the bread but not a problem. I used 1/2 cup sharp cheddar and Colby-jack with slices of pepper jack. I made 8 small sandwich rolls and one small (3×5?) It is a keeper and am making 2 full loaves right now. Should go great with the pot of veggie soup on the stove.
