Ingredients

Scale

Onion Rings

  • 2 white onions, sliced into 1/4 inch thick rings

Cheese Coating

  • 2 cups shredded parmesan cheese

Seasonings

  • Salt, to taste
  • Garlic powder, to taste
  • Paprika, to taste
  • Italian seasoning, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
  2. Create Cheese Molds: For each onion ring, place about 1 tablespoon of shredded parmesan cheese directly onto the parchment paper to form a small circle that will act as a cheese mold for the onion rings.
  3. Place Onion Rings: Lay one sliced onion ring on top of each cheese mold carefully.
  4. Add Cheese Topping: Sprinkle another tablespoon of shredded parmesan cheese over each onion ring, covering the top to create a crust once baked.
  5. Press Cheese and Onion: Using the back of a spoon, gently press down on the cheese and onion ring to flatten slightly, helping the cheese stick and providing even coverage.
  6. Season: Sprinkle salt, garlic powder, paprika, and Italian seasoning evenly over the top of each cheese-coated onion ring to add flavor.
  7. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15–20 minutes or until the cheese is golden brown and has crisped around the edges.
  8. Cool and Serve: Allow the onion rings to cool on the baking sheet for 10–15 minutes so they can firm up and achieve extra crispiness before serving.

Notes

  • Use fresh, thick-sliced onions for the best texture and structural integrity.
  • Adjust seasoning quantities according to your taste preferences.
  • Make sure to let the onion rings cool fully for optimal crispiness.
  • This recipe is naturally gluten-free and suitable for keto and low-carb diets.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and re-crisp in the oven.
