This is the broth base, top with french bread and gruyere cheese (or bread and cheese of your choice) and broil for about 5 minutes, until cheese is bubbly.

Carmelize onions in sugar, butter, garlic and vinegar on high in slow cooker for 1 hour or until onions starting to brown (It took mine about 1.5 hours). You can also carmelize them on the stove top for 30 minutes, then transfer to slow cooker. Add flour to onions, stir and let sit for 5 minutes. Add remaining ingredients, stir and cook on low for 6-8 hours. See tip if you want to add bread and cheese.
