I’ll admit it.
My favorite cheat foods are battered and fried.
Onion rings, sweet potato fries, zucchini sticks and fish tacos….
As much as I love those cheat foods, those are a once-in-a-while treat.
Luckily it’s actually quite easy to make a healthy version of onion rings that tastes as good as the real thing!
And these ones won’t give you a tummy ache
1 large yellow onion, cut into ½ inch slices
1 cup blanched almond meal
dash of sea salt
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
1 cup coconut milk, full fat
1 omega-3 egg
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly grease a baking sheet with coconut oil.
In a shallow bowl combine the almond meal, salt and garlic powder. In another shallow bowl whisk the coconut milk and egg.
Dip each onion ring in the milk mixture and then coat with the almond meal mixture. Place on prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven, flip each onion ring, then return to oven for an additional 10 minutes.
Remove from oven and serve immediately.
