👩🍳 Instructions
Step 1: Make the Onion Rings
Soak the Onions
Place onion rings in a bowl and cover with buttermilk. Let soak for 30 minutes or refrigerate overnight for deeper flavor.
Mix the Coating
In a large bowl, combine flour, panko, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, baking powder, salt, and pepper.
Coat the Rings
Remove onions from buttermilk and dredge in the flour mixture. For extra crunch, dip them back into the buttermilk and coat again.
Fry Until Golden
Heat oil to 350°F (175°C) in a deep skillet or fryer. Fry onion rings in batches for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden and crisp. Drain on paper towels.
