These make the best onion rings! try to use panko for this it will really make a difference to the texture, use large sweet onions preferably Bermuda --- you will love these!

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

2 big sweet onions, peeled and sliced thin into rings

DIPPING MIXTURE

2 eggs
1/2 cup buttermilk

CRISPY COATING MIXTURE

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon seasoning salt (or regular salt, can use less than 1 teaspoon if desired)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 pinch cayenne pepper (optional but good to add in, I use lots as we like extreme heat)
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/2 cup dry breadcrumbs (preferably panko bread crumbs)
oil (for frying)

Directions

1
Heat the oil to about 350 degrees.
2
In a small bowl whisk together buttermilk and eggs.
3
In a bowl mix together the coating mixture, then place into a shallow dish (a shallow dish makes for easier coating of the rings).
4
Dip/coat the onion rings into the buttermilk mixture.
5
Then coat generously into the dry coating mixture.
6
Fry briefly in hot oil (turning once) until onion rings are lightly brown on both sides.
7
Delicious!

These onion rings were really good, but I prefer a lighter batter with flour and cornflour. Good if you like a change though!

I loved how the batter stuck to these onion rings! We used panko crumbs for the bread crumbs and it gave them a good crunch. I soaked the onions in the egg/b.milk mixture for an hour. I put all of the dry ingredients in a gallon size ziploc bag, then I dropped some onions (1 batch at a time) in the bag and tossed it around. It was fast, easy and gave a great coating. Thanks for the recipe. My husband is always suggesting we make some onion rings and this was the recipe I chose...so glad I did!
