Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Step 2
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and sauté for 5 to 10 minutes, or until tender. Stir in thyme, then remove from the heat.
Step 3
In a large pot over high heat, combine the consommé, bay leaves, and white wine. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, stir in the sautéed onions, and cook until heated through, 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 4
Ladle soup into four individual oven-safe bowls, filling each about 3/4 full. Top each bowl with two baguette slices and cover with mozzarella.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until mozzarella is melted and bubbly, 10 to 15 minutes.
