Recipe FAQ

Can I make these gluten-free?

Yes, you can use gluten-free flour and breadcrumbs to make this recipe gluten-free.

Can I use a different type of cheese?

Recipe Tips

  • Make sure your onion rings are evenly coated with the breadcrumb mixture to ensure they are crispy and crunchy.
  • Don't overcrowd your baking sheet. If your onion rings are too close together, they will steam instead of getting crispy.
  • For an extra crispy coating, you can add a sprinkle of cornmeal to the breadcrumb mixture.
