Add minced garlic, salt, and pepper to the pot. Stir well and continue cooking for two minutes. Pour in white wine and balsamic vinegar. Cook for a few more minutes to let the flavors meld.
Add beef broth and bay leaves. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let the soup simmer for about thirty minutes.
Place slices of French baguette on a foil-lined baking sheet. Brush with olive oil and toast in the oven until golden brown.
Ladle the soup into oven-safe bowls on a baking sheet. Place two slices of toasted baguette in each bowl.
Top with Swiss cheese and place under the broiler until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Sprinkle fresh chopped parsley on top. Easy French Onion Soup, a comforting blend of caramelized onions, flavorful broth, and gooey cheese on a crusty baguette.
