Light & Crispy Baked Onion Rings
Servings 4 servings
These onion rings are perfectly crispy, delicious, and made in the oven! Dredge onions in a light batter and coat with panko bread crumbs before baking.
Ingredients
- 2 large sweet onions or white or yellow
- 2 cups buttermilk divided
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup all-purpose flour + 2 tablespoons
- 2 cups Panko bread crumbs
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon seasoned salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon dried parsley
Instructions
- Peel onions and slice into ½½" thick rings. Place sliced onions in a large freezer bag with 1 cup of buttermilk and let sit at least 30 minutes turning occasionally.
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- Mix buttermilk, eggs and 2 tablespoons of flour until smooth. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, combine Panko Bread Crumbs, olive oil and seasonings.
- Remove onions from the ziploc bag and drain well. Place onions in a bag with 1/2 cup of flour and shake to coat.
- Separate the Panko mixture into 2 small bowls (this is important because the mixture gets damp and doesn't stick after a while). One by one, dip each onion into the egg mixture and then into the Panko mixture to coat.
- Place on a parchment lined pan. Bake 10 minutes, flip over and bake an additional 10-15 minutes until browned and crispy.
- Sprinkle with additional seasoning salt if desired and serve with ketchup!
