How to make it keto
Omit croutons completely. Confirm broth is sugar-free and no flour or starch thickeners are used. Caramelization of onions must be done slowly without added sugar.
Watch out for
Hidden sugar in pre-made broth, sugar added during onion caramelization, flour thickeners in the broth. Onions contribute natural carbs.
