Instructions
- 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. - 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. - Coat the Onions
Take each soaked onion ring and coat it thoroughly with the flour mixture, ensuring an even and crisp coating. - Bake or Air Fry
Preheat your oven or air fryer. For a healthier option, consider baking or air frying instead of deep-frying.
Arrange the coated onion rings on a baking sheet or in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded. - Cook to Perfection
Bake or air fry until the onion rings are golden brown and crispy. Turn them halfway through the cooking time for even crispiness. - Enjoy Responsibly
Serve your Fried Onion Rings with a side of low-fat dipping sauce or Greek yogurt mixed with your favorite herbs.
