Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly coat it with cooking spray.
Peel the sweet onions and slice them into thin rings, approximately 1/4 inch thick.
Separate the onion slices into individual rings and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, arrowroot powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
In another small bowl, beat the egg and mix in the coconut milk until well combined.
Dip each onion ring into the egg mixture, ensuring they are fully coated, then dredge in the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere the coating.
Arrange the coated onion rings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Lightly spray the tops of the onion rings with additional cooking spray to help them crisp up in the oven.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through baking, until the onion rings are golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Paleo Crispy Onion Chips as a snack or side dish!
