Introduction

Onion rings are a classic appetizer and side dish. They’re crunchy, savory, and delicious — in short, everything you want from an onion ring. But making them at home can be time-consuming and messy, since deep frying is involved. These baked onion rings solve those problems while still delivering all the flavor you’d expect from a deep fried onion ring!

For the onion rings

• 2 sweet onions, cut into 1/2-inch rounds and separated into rings
• 3 cups flour
• 3 tablespoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt

In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Pour in enough beer to make a smooth batter; add more if needed to thin out batter to desired consistency. Dip onion rings into batter until completely coated and place on wire rack over wax paper-lined cookie sheet until ready to cook in hot oil (about 5 minutes).

1/2 cup milk

1/2 cup milk

Milk is a key ingredient in onion ring batter. It’s used to keep the onions from clumping together and making the rings hard to separate. It also helps make them crispy, which is why they’re called onion rings and not just fried onions.

1 large egg

• In a large bowl, beat the egg, milk and oil until blended. Combine the flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper sauce and 1 teaspoon salt in another bowl; gradually beat into egg mixture just until blended (do not overmix).
• Pour oil to depth of 2 inches into a deep fryer or heavy Dutch oven; heat to 375°F.
• Using tongs, dip onion rings one at a time in batter; allow excess batter to drip back into bowl before transferring to oil. Fry 3 minutes or until golden brown on all sides; drain on paper towels while frying remaining rings. Sprinkle with remaining salt and pepper sauces if desired

2 tablespoons canola oil

If you’re frying or baking your onions, you’ll want to use canola oil. This is a healthy oil that can withstand high temperatures.

2 cups all-purpose flour

Flour is a staple in most kitchens, but it’s not as simple as putting a bag on the counter and using it for every recipe. There are many types of flour—all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour and gluten-free—and each one has its own purpose.

All-purpose flour is the most common type of flour used in American kitchens. It can be used to make many different types of baked goods including cakes, cookies, pastries and breads. Whole wheat flour has all of the nutrients found in white (refined) flours except that it contains more fiber than white flours do because it includes only the endosperm portion of wheat kernels while leaving behind other parts such as bran and germ. Gluten-free flours are made from alternative grains like rice or soybeans; they require extra care during preparation because some gluten-free products tend to be dryer than wheat ones so they should always be mixed with liquids before adding them into recipes containing eggs or other wet ingredients that might otherwise cause clumping issues due to lack moisture content between combination components

1 1/2 teaspoons hot pepper sauce, divided

Onion rings are a staple of any bar menu and make for a great appetizer, but they can be time-consuming to make. Using this recipe, you’ll be able to whip up batches of onion rings in no time at all! This recipe calls for two cups of flour, one cup of cornmeal, six eggs and two cups of milk. You’ll also need some bread crumbs or batter mix (available at your local grocery store).

First things first: it’s important to break down the onions into rings before frying them. To do this, slice off the top third of each onion and discard this part completely—it will not be used in this recipe. Then peel back layers until you get down to just one layer left—this is what you’ll use for making onion rings! Set aside about eight large pieces or 16 small pieces after removing their skin; these will become your batter mixture later on when we fry them up with our other ingredients like flour or cornmeal mix .

1 teaspoon salt, divided

Salt is a mineral with many uses. It’s used to flavor and preserve food, as well as to add flavor to it. Onions are very high in sodium and require the use of salt when being prepared for eating.

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

• Use freshly ground black pepper and don’t substitute pre-ground black pepper. The problem with pre-ground pepper is that it gets very fine, which makes it harder to coat the onion rings evenly. Also, the longer you store spices in your pantry, the more flavor they lose. So if you don’t have any fresh spices on hand, go ahead and buy some!

Vegetable oil, for frying

• Vegetable oil, for frying
• A deep fryer or heavy pot
• A thermometer
• Breading mix, or:

• 1/2 teaspoon pepper (more if desired)

Conclusion

I hope that you’re now ready to make your own delicious onion rings! It can be a fun challenge to make sure that every one is perfectly crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle. If you’re having trouble with this, try dipping them into ice water after frying to help keep them from sticking together during storage.
