Satisfy your cravings with these delightfully crunchy and savory paleo onion rings, made with almond flour and coconut oil for a healthier twist. Bold flavors like garlic salt and cayenne pepper offer a tasty balance of sweetness, heat, and crispiness.
Slice the large onion into 1/2 inch thick rings and separate the individual rings.
2
In a small bowl, whisk the egg and 1 tablespoon of water until combined.
3
In another shallow dish, mix together the almond flour, 3/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper, 1/2 teaspoon of garlic salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of fresh cracked pepper.
4
Dip each onion ring in the egg mixture, letting the excess liquid fall off, then dredge it in the almond flour mixture, ensuring an even coating.
5
In a medium saucepan, heat 1/2 cup of coconut oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F or until a pinch of almond flour immediately bubbles when dropped in.
6
Fry the onion rings in batches for 1-3 minutes or until golden brown, flipping halfway if the oil doesn't fully cover the rings.
7
Remove the onion rings from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve immediately and enjoy the crunchiness!
