Baked Onion Rings Recipe

1. Peel and cut onion into ¼-inch slices and separate into rings. Soak the rings in a large bowl of cold water for about 15 minutes.
2. Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C). Spray a large baking sheet with cooking spray (or coat it with olive oil).
3. Mix cracker crumbs, paprika, salt and pepper in a shallow dish.
4. Crack eggs and beat the egg and one egg white together in a separate dish.
5. Drain onions and pat dry with a paper towel. Dip onion rings, a few at a time, into the egg, then into the crumbs. Place onion rings on the prepared baking sheet.
6. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, until crisp and brown.

Cooking Note

Onion rings are delicious served with ketchup, or with a simple dipping sauce made from ½ cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons gluten-free chili sauce and 1 tablespoon pickle relish.
