Oven-Fried Onion Rings

oven-fried onion rings with potato chips coating, recipe with step by step pictures

Onion rings, anyone?

And what about some oven-fried ones?

Oh, you need to know some more about them to be able to decide.

Alrighty, I’ll be glad to tell you.

These onion rings are crunchy, flavorful and very delicious. The tempting potato chips coating, full of spicy flavor, is a nice contrast to the tender and sweet onions. And since the chips have been fried, they give the onion rings that unique deep-fried taste even though there’s no deep-frying involved.

So, what do you think now?

Are you with me?

If so, here’s the stairway to heaven…no, no… I meant – here’s the step-by-step recipe…

This is what we need.

1. Preheat the oven to 390 F (200 C).

2. In a large bowl, combine 1/4 cup (35 grams) flour, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper and 1/4 tsp cayenne. Minus the spoons.

10. Place the rings on the hot baking sheet and bake for 8 minutes, then flip each ring over before baking for another 8 minutes.

Since you will probably have more rings than you can fit in one baking sheet you might need to work in batches.

  16. These look soooo good! And healthier way to eat onion rings too. YUM!

  17. Oh my goodness, I made these a few nights ago and they are insanely good. Very decadent!

    I ran out of crushed chips before I ran out of batter and onions – I think I should have crushed them even more finely. And my batter was pretty thick, I probably should have thinned it out a bit (maybe with milk?).

    But overall, amazing, will be making again for a treat… probably sometime soon :)

  18. It was very nice and beautiful

  19. soooooooooo yummy thanks for the info

  21. i tried it and it tasted yummy! However, i had trouble coating the crushed chips onto the onion rings. May I know why did it happen?

  22. Does anyone know if these can be made with gluten free flour? My son has celiac disease so I couldn’t use regular flour.

  23. If the coating of batter looks so thick in the picture, ifear if maida will
    Get cooked?
