Equipment

  • 1 large onions sliced into 1/4-inch thick rings
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 club soda
  • 1 cup cornstarch
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
  • Oil for frying (if not baking)

Ingredients
  

  • 2 onions Large onion, sliced into 1/4-inch thick rings
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 club soda
  • 1 cup cornstarch
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper ground
  • Oil for frying or baking

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the onions and preheat your oven or oil for frying.
  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, paprika, ground black pepper, and garlic powder. Gradually whisk in the water (or beer for a beer battered version) until a smooth batter forms.
  • Dip each onion ring into the batter, ensuring it's fully coated. Gently shake off any excess batter.
  • If baking, place the coated onion rings on a wire rack set over a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 450°F (232°C) for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
  • If frying, carefully lower the battered onion rings into the hot oil using a slotted spoon or tongs. Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Remove the onion rings from the oil and place them on a wire rack set over a paper towel-lined tray to drain excess oil.
  • Serve your old-fashioned onion rings hot, alongside your favorite dipping sauces and enjoy!
