Here’s a tasty recipe for Amish Onion Bliss—a rich, cheesy, comforting casserole that’s perfect as a side or main dish. This dish is inspired by traditional Amish cooking, known for simple ingredients and hearty flavors.
🧅 Amish Onion Bliss Casserole
🥘 Ingredients
- 2 large onions, thinly sliced
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 2 cups French-fried onions (like the crispy topping)
- 1–2 tbsp butter (optional, for greasing the baking dish)
👩🍳 Instructions
1. Preheat oven
- Preheat to 350°F (175°C)
- Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or nonstick spray
2. Prepare the mixture
- In a large bowl, mix cream of mushroom/chicken soup, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper
- Stir in sliced onions and 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
3. Assemble the casserole
- Pour mixture into the prepared baking dish
- Sprinkle remaining ½ cup cheddar cheese on top
- Cover with foil
4. Bake
- Bake for 30–35 minutes, until bubbly and onions are tender
- Remove foil, sprinkle French-fried onions on top, and bake 5–10 more minutes until crispy and golden
🌟 Tips
- Can substitute cheddar with Swiss or mozzarella for a milder flavor
- For extra creaminess, add ½ cup of cream or milk to the mixture
- Serve hot as a side for ham, chicken, or roast beef
If you want, I can also make a low-carb version or a super cheesy, double-onion version that’s extra indulgent.
Do you want me to do that?
