Vegan Baked Onion Rings

I used to think nothing was better than onion rings… I was wrong! Nothing is better than HOMEMADE onion rings!

Onion rings were my go-to side option at restaurants before I was vegan! Now, every time I see them on the menu, you best believe I’m asking my server if they’re vegan or not. Most of the time, the answer is no, which is sad, but now I can turn that frown upside down! This recipe is fantastic – all the crunch, all the flavor, all the veganness I’ve been searching for. And all the simplicity! These onion rings are so easy to make; they’re baked, not fried! Bonus: I always have the ingredients on hand.

Ingredients:

• 3 small yellow onions
• 1/2 cup flour of choice
• 2/3 cup unsweetened plant milk
• 1/2 tsp paprika
• 1/4 tsp turmeric
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 1/2 cup vegan breadcrumbs

Method:

• Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F/220 degrees C. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Slice the end off of each onion, then peel off the top layer. Slice each onion into 1/4-1/2″ portions, or however thick you want your onion rings to be.
• I like to use two layers of the onion in one ring. Remove two layers of each slice to get a hollow ring, then two more for a smaller onion ring, repeating until you’re at the center.

• In one bowl, mix together the milk, flour, and spices. Split the breadcrumbs evenly into two other bowls.
• Dip each onion ring into the wet mixture, then one bowl of breadcrumbs, then place on the baking sheet. When the breadcrumbs get too sticky/wet, use the other bowl.

• Bake for 20 minutes, flip, and bake for another 15 minutes or until done to your liking. Serve with your favorite dips. Enjoy & share!
