Crispy Onion Rings

Ingredients:

• 2 yellow or sweet onions, peeled
• heaping 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
• 1 cup cold milk (I used oat milk)
• 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
• 1 cup Homemade Breadcrumbs
• olive oil spray (optional)

Preparation:

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
2. Line a baking sheet with non stick foil.Cut onions to your desired thickness
3. Slice the onions width wise and then break them apart into rings. (Make them as thick or as thin as you would like.  I cut mine about 1/2 inch thick.)
4. In one bowl mix together the flour, milk and vinegar.  In a separate bowl add the breadcrumbs (make sure this bowl is wide enough for you to dip your onion rings in). 
5. Next dip each onion into the wet flour mixture, and then into breadcrumbs.  Make sure your onion ring is evenly coated and then place the baking sheet.
6. Lightly spray your onion rings with olive oil (optional).
7. Bake for 8 minutes, flip your rings over and then bake for an additional 6 minutes or until crispy.
