Ingredients:
– 2 medium-sized onions
– 1 cup almond flour
– 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
– 2 large eggs
– Avocado oil (or any other keto-friendly oil) for frying
Instructions:
- Start by peeling the onions and slicing them into 1/2-inch thick rings and the rings should be separated and placed aside.
- Almond flour, grated parmesan cheese, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper should all be combined in a small basin. Ensure that all the ingredients are well combined.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until well combined.
- Dip each onion ring into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat it in the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to ensure it sticks to the onion.
- Place the coated onion rings on a plate or tray and repeat the process until all the rings are coated.
- Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat.
- Once the oil is hot, carefully add a few onion rings to the pan, making sure not to overcrowd them. Cook for about 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy.
- Use a slotted spoon or tongs to transfer the cooked onion rings to a paper towel-lined plate to remove any excess oil.
- Repeat the frying process with the remaining onion rings, adding more oil if needed.
- Serve the Keto Fried Onion Rings hot with your favorite keto-friendly dipping sauce.
