Ingredients
- 2 large red onions
- 0.5 cup coconut flour
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 eggs
- 0.25 cup almond milk
- 1 cup avocado oil
Directions
Step 1
Start by peeling the red onions and cutting them into roughly 1/4-inch thick rings. Gently separate the layers into rings and set aside.
Step 2
In a shallow bowl, mix together the coconut flour, almond flour, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper. Stir until well combined.
Step 3
In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs and almond milk together until smooth and frothy.
Step 4
Set up an assembly line with the onion rings, the egg mixture, and the flour mixture.
Step 5
Dip each onion ring into the egg mixture, ensuring it is completely coated, then dredge it in the flour mixture, pressing the mixture onto the ring to adhere. Set the coated onion rings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 6
In a large skillet, heat the avocado oil over medium heat. You can test if the oil is ready by dropping a small piece of batter into the oil; if it sizzles and floats to the top, the oil is hot enough.
Step 7
Fry the onion rings in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crisp. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the rings to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Step 8
Serve the warm crispy onion rings immediately. You can enjoy them on their own or with your favorite Whole30-approved sauce or dip.
