Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large yellow onions
- 0.5 cup coconut flour
- 0.5 cup almond flour
- 0.75 cup coconut milk
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 as needed olive oil spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel the onions and slice them into thin rings about 1/4 inch thick. Separate the rings carefully and set aside.
In a medium bowl, combine the coconut flour, almond flour, sea salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and garlic powder. Mix well.
In another bowl, whisk the egg with the coconut milk until well combined.
Dip each onion ring into the coconut milk and egg mixture, ensuring it is well coated.
Place the dipped onion ring into the flour mixture, turning to coat evenly. Shake off any excess flour.
Lay the coated onion rings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they do not overlap.
Lightly spray the onion rings with olive oil spray to help them crisp up during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, turning once halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the onion crisps from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
