Ingredients
2-3 sweet onions
1 cup gluten free all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon all-purpose season salt
¾ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 cup gluten-free beer (I used lager)
2 cups gluten free breadcrumbs
Preparation
Trim the ends of your onions and slice them to a thickness of ¼ to ½ inch.
Separate the onion rings into individual pieces.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda, and black pepper.
In a separate shallow bowl, whisk the egg with 1 cup of beer.
In a third shallow bowl, add the plain breadcrumbs.
Dip each onion ring into the seasoned flour, ensuring it is fully coated.
Then, working in batches, transfer the coated onion rings to the beer mixture and toss them to coat evenly.
Finally, dip each onion ring into the breadcrumbs, ensuring it is well-coated.
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Fry the onion rings in batches for 45 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
