Instructions

1. Soak the Onions

  • Slice sweet onions into thin rings and soak them in buttermilk or plain Greek yogurt. This helps tenderize the onions and ensures a flavorful coating.

2. Prepare the Coating

  • In a bowl, mix whole wheat flour (or a combination of whole wheat and all-purpose flour), cornmeal, baking powder, salt, pepper, and your favorite seasonings. This creates a crunchy and flavorful coating for the onion rings.

3. Coat the Onions

  • Take each soaked onion ring and coat it thoroughly with the flour mixture, ensuring an even and crisp coating.

4. Bake or Air Fry

  • Preheat your oven or air fryer. For a healthier option, consider baking or air frying instead of deep-frying.
