Pour the onion mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the dip is golden brown and bubbling around the edges.

Garnish with chopped chives or green onions, if desired.
Serve warm with tortilla chips, crackers, or sliced baguette for dipping. Enjoy!
