Step 3: Drizzle some olive oil over the onions and season them with salt and pepper.

Step 5: Once you’ve roasted the onions transfer them to another baking dish while keeping their rings intact.
Step 6: Slowly pour the cream mixture over the onions. Generously sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top.
Step 7: Cover tightly with foil. Return it to the oven. Bake for 20 minutes then carefully remove the foil. Roast for another 5 minutes. Keep an eye, on them as they turn brown and caramelize.
Step 8: Serve your Roasted Parmesan Creamed Onions immediately. Savor their flavors!
Tip:
To ensure even cooking and caramelization, try to select onions that are similar in size. Also, when arranging the onion slices in the baking dish, make sure the slices are all laid out in one layer rather than stacked on top of each other. This will allow each piece to roast evenly and absorb the cream mixture thoroughly. As a result, every bite will be equally delicious!
