This quick batter bread is fabulous! If you love the taste of carmelized onions and sweet brown sugar, you must try it! It is more of a biscuit style bread, and best when still warm from the oven, but this is one of the few breads that can successfully be gently reheated in the microwave or oven. The onions form a sweet bottom layer, as they don't actually bake into the bread. I've used less onions than the recipe calls for due to not having enough, and it came out fine, but if you have enough use them all! The onions are so sweet I could almost eat it as dessert.
