Description
Freshly fried, crisp, and golden-brown beer-battered onion rings that offer a delightful crunch and sweet onion flavor.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large yellow onions, sliced into rings
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup beer (lager or pilsner)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- Oil for frying
- Dipping sauce of choice
Instructions
- Slice the onions into rings about 1/4-inch thick and gently separate each ring.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl.
- Pour in the beer gradually, mixing until the batter is smooth and velvety.
- Heat the oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 365°F (185°C).
- Dip each onion ring into the batter, allowing excess to drip back into the bowl.
- Place the battered onion rings into the hot oil, frying in batches until golden brown and crisp, approximately 2-3 minutes.
- Remove the rings from the oil using a slotted spoon and let drain on paper towels.
- Serve them hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
For a lighter option, try air frying the battered rings at 400°F (200°C) for about 10 minutes.
