Those of you who follow me know how much I don’t like to fry foods. However, onion rings just need to be fried in my opinion. We have an air fryer but I’m just not crazy about them fixed that way or baking them in the oven. I will post any Onion Rings that we think tastes good fried and this is the first. So I am going to experiment with some different recipes and call this one Version – 1.

  5. In every instance I’ve tried to make onion rings, the batter seems to fall off while they’re frying so there ends up being bare spots of onion (not pretty). Maybe it’s because I’m not using egg. I’ll try this method instead, because yours look the way I WANT mine to look!

    • Aw thank you! This simple batter stuck really well. Cut your onions rings, separate them and let them sit while you prepare the batter and heat up the oil. That way thy dry out allowing the batter to stick even better.
