Description

This recipe is a healthy take on onion rings by baking them instead of frying. Use any kind of onion- white, yellow or red!

Ingredients
  • 1 Onion (medium, sliced into 1/4 inch rings)
  • 2 1/4 cup Buttermilk (low fat)
  • 1/2 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup Whole Wheat Crumbs (Italian-seasoned)
  • 1/4 cup Cornflakes (crushed into crumbs)
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Olive Oil Spray
Instructions
  1. 1
    Place slices of onion in a shallow dish.
  2. 2

    Pour the buttermilk over the top and let them soak for about 1 - 2 hours, refrigerated.

  3. 3
    Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  4. 4
    Line baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
  5. 5
    Combine panko, bread crumbs and corn flakes and place half of the crumbs in a large dish, season with salt. Reserve the rest for when the first batch is used up.
    This should help avoid clumping and they should stick better to the onions.
  6. 6
    Dip each soaked onion ring into the crumb mixture; coat well.
  7. 7
    Place rings onto two cookie sheets.
  8. 8
    Lightly spray with oil.
  9. 9
    Bake about 12 minutes or until golden brown and serve immediately.
