This version of crunchy onion rings is baked instead of fried. Try using a sweet onion, such as Vidali, Maui, or Walla Walla.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

  • Nonstick vegetable cooking spray
  • 1 large onion
  • 1-1/4 cups Italian-style bread crumbs
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced fresh garlic
  • 1 cup low-fat milk
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 large egg whites, beaten slightly

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray 2 large cookie sheets with nonstick spray.

Cut onion into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Separate slices into rings.

In a small bowl, combine bread crumbs and garlic. Set aside.

Place milk, flour, and egg whites into three separate small bowls. Dip each onion ring into milk, flour, egg white, and bread crumbs (in that order).

Place on prepared cookie sheets and bake for 20 minutes. Turn onion rings over and bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes longer.

Yield: 4 servings
