CRISPY KETO ONION RINGS RECIPE

Here’s a recipe for the ultimate crispy Keto Onion Rings—a low-carb twist on a classic favorite! They’re easy to make, irresistibly delicious, and perfectly crunchy, just like the real deal. Do you love onion rings as much as I do? I bet most people do—they’re just so crispy and flavorful! If you’re following a low-carb diet, this is probably one of those treats you’ve had to give up. But not anymore!

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 large sweet onions
  • 3 eggs
  • ¾ cup almond flour
  • ¾ cup Parmesan cheese
  • 3 Tbsp coconut flour
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • Light olive oil

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Slice the onions into rings of your preferred thickness, then separate them. Set aside the smaller pieces for another recipe. For even cooking, try to keep all the rings a similar size.
  • In a bowl, beat the eggs.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the almond flour, coconut flour, Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, parsley, and paprika.
  • Dip each onion ring into the beaten eggs, then coat it in the flour mixture. Repeat the process by dipping it back into the egg and then coating it a second time in the flour mixture. This double coating helps the breading stick better while frying.
  • Heat the oil to 285°F (140°C). Test the temperature by frying one onion ring first to ensure it crisps up without burning.
  • Fry the onion rings in batches, cooking each for about 1 minute per side.
  • Remove the rings from the oil and drain them on paper towels.
  • Serve hot and enjoy!

NOTES

  • Slice the onions into rings about ¼ inch thick for the best texture.
  • Use medium and large rings for frying, and save the smaller ones for other dishes to avoid waste.
  • You can mix the seasonings into either the egg wash or the flour mixture, depending on your preference.
  • For uniform cooking, cut the onion slices as evenly as possible. Avoid very thin or overly thick pieces to ensure they fry at the same rate.
  • Always add the onion rings to the oil only once it has reached the proper temperature. This ensures a crispy texture instead of soggy or burnt rings.
  • If you don’t mind using animal fat, adding a few tablespoons of bacon grease to the olive oil can enhance the crispiness and add extra flavor.

Enjoy your crunchy, low-carb onion rings!

PALEO & KETO COCOA PUFFS

These crunchy, chocolatey keto cocoa puffs are made with just six simple ingredients and make a delicious breakfast the whole family will love!

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup coconut flour
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder or cacao powder
  • 6 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup keto maple syrup (or regular maple syrup if not low-carb)
  • 1 egg white

INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients and mix until a dough forms.

Shaping Options

  • Option 1: Roll small portions of dough (about 1/4 teaspoon each) into balls and place them on the baking sheet in a single layer.
  • Option 2: Transfer the dough to a piping bag and pipe small dots directly onto the parchment paper. They won’t be perfectly round but will bake just fine.
  • Option 3: Roll the dough between two sheets of parchment paper into a thin layer. Score it into small 1/2-inch squares using the back of a knife. Once baked and cooled, break them apart.

Step 3: Bake for 13-14 minutes, or until crispy. If using Option 3, check for doneness at 10-11 minutes.

Step 4: Remove from the oven and let the cocoa puffs cool completely—they will become crunchier as they cool.

Enjoy with your favorite milk!

STORAGE: THESE ARE BEST EATEN FRESH BUT CAN BE STORED IN AN AIRTIGHT CONTAINER AT ROOM TEMPERATURE FOR UP TO A WEEK. IF THEY SOFTEN, RE-BAKE AT 350°F FOR 5 MINUTES TO CRISP THEM UP AGAIN.
