Crispy Onion Rings, whether baked or fried, will be a huge hit appetizer that you will want to make again and again. The sweet onion wrapped in a crunch of perfectly crispy panko breading is just as delicious as any restaurant version, and surprisingly easy to make at home!
In a medium-sized skillet add the oil for frying and fill the skillet ½ inch up the sides. Heat the oil to medium-high heat or 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Slice onions into 1/4 inch rings.
In a small bowl, add flour and 1 baking powder. In another bowl, whisk together 3 large eggs. In the last bowl, add panko, parmesan, paprika, and garlic powder.
Dip each onion ring first in the flour mixture, then in the egg mixture, and lastly in the Panko mixture. Repeat with all of the onion rings.
Place onion rings in hot oil and fry until they are golden brown. Place the fried onion rings on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. After coating the onion rings line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until crispy and golden brown.
