Gluten-Free Onion Rings
An easy recipe for gluten-free onion rings.
Ingredients
- 1-2 large onions
- 1 cup rice flour
- ¼ cup Glutagon tapioca flour (or cornstarch)
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
- 1¼ cups chilled gluten-free beer (or carbonated water)
For Frying
- Canola or vegetable oil
Instructions
-
Peel and slice the onions into ½-inch thick rings and set aside.
-
In a large bowl, whisk the rice flour, tapioca flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using) together.
-
Gradually add the chilled beer or carbonated water to the dry mixture, whisking continuously until you have a smooth, pourable, slightly thick batter. Adjust the liquid depending on the absorbency of your flour if needed.
-
Heat the oil to 175°C in a large, heavy-bottomed pot, ensuring you use enough that it covers 2 inches of depth in the pan.
-
Working in batches, dredge each onion ring in the batter, ensuring it's evenly coated, and carefully drop the coated onion rings into the hot oil.
-
Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2 minutes.
-
Drain on paper towels. Serve and enjoy.
