This homemade French Onion Dip recipe is the ultimate party starter. Loaded with caramelized onions, fresh herbs, and big flavor, it’s miles better than anything in a tub – and guaranteed to disappear fast.
Homemade French Onion Dip Is the Reason Chips Exist
I've honestly never loved the store-bought version of French Onion Dip that much, but this homemade version is insane. Ruffle style potato chips were made for it. It has fresh caramelized onions mixed throughout that add such a delicious, fresh flavor no packet can replicate! We even enjoy it spread on burgers and sandwiches – it's just so good! You could also serve onion dip with pita bread, crackers, veggies, or pretzel thins.
How to make French Onion Dip:
Caramelize Onions: Heat butter and oil in a pan over low heat then add onions. Cook, stirring every few minutes for about 30 minutes. They will be caramelized and a deep rich golden color. Transfer to a bowl then let cool.
Add: greek yogurt, sour cream, mayo, garlic, chives, and salt. Stir in caramelized onions and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to blend. Serve this caramelized onion dip with potato chips, or pita bread, fresh veggies, crackers, kettle potato chips, pretzel thins, or spread on a sandwich or burger to take it to the next level!
