Heat the vegan butter and olive oil together in a large heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium heat until the butter is melted and the mixture shimmers.

Add the diced onions and 1 tsp salt. Cook, stirring every few minutes, until the onions are deeply softened, jammy, and a rich golden-brown color, about 30–35 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low if they begin to stick or darken too quickly.
