Ingredients
- 1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup fine cornmeal
- 1/4 cup arrowroot powder or tapioca starch
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt plus extra for seasoning
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper optional for a kick
- 1 cup or any plant-based milk unsweetened almond milk
- 2 large sweet onion sliced into 1/2-inch thick rings
- High-heat oil, such as avocado oil for frying
Instructions
- Begin by preheating your oven to 200 degrees Fahrenheit to keep the onion rings warm after frying. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place it in the oven.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, cornmeal, arrowroot powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper, if using.
- Pour the almond milk into a separate bowl. This will act as the "glue" to help the dry mixture stick to the onion rings.
- Take an onion ring and first dip it into the dry mixture, ensuring it's fully coated. Dip it into the almond milk and coat it again in the dry mixture. Place the coated onion ring on a plate and repeat with the remaining onion rings. One quick tip: keep one hand for dry ingredients and the other for wet to avoid clumping.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add enough avocado oil to cover the bottom with a depth of about 1/2 inch. Once the oil is hot (you can test by sprinkling a bit of the dry mixture into the oil; if it sizzles, it's ready), add the onion rings in batches and be careful not to overcrowd.
- Fry the onion rings for 2-3 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and crispy. Adjust the heat if needed to prevent burning. You can use tongs or a fork to gently flip the onion rings.
- Once fried, transfer the onion rings to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Move them to the prepared baking sheet in the oven to keep warm. Sprinkle with a little extra sea salt while they're still hot.
- Continue frying the remaining onion rings in batches until all are cooked. Serve them warm.
