Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Peel the onions and cut them into 1/2-inch thick slices. Separate each slice into individual rings, discarding the small inner pieces.
Set up a three-station breading process: Place the flour in a shallow bowl. In a second shallow bowl, whisk the eggs with the milk until fully combined. In a third shallow bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Dip an onion ring into the flour, coating it lightly. Then, submerge it in the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully covered. Finally, press the ring into the breadcrumb mixture, patting gently to adhere the coating to the onion. Place the coated onion ring on the prepared baking sheet.
Repeat the coating process with the remaining onion rings, arranging them in a single layer on the baking sheets with space in between to ensure even baking.
Lightly spray the tops of the onion rings with cooking spray to help them crisp up during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove the baking sheets, flip each onion ring carefully, and spray the other side lightly with cooking spray. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven and serve immediately with your favorite dips or sauces.
