This French onion pasta bake recipe is inspired by classic French onion soup, with tender pasta noodles and a savory cream sauce mixed in, then topped with crunchy bread crumbs. We make this one-pot recipe in a Lodge Enamel Cast Iron Dutch Oven because it’s oven-proof, so you don’t have to switch dishes to put it under the broiler
