Easy Keto Onion Rings with Cheese

These super crispy baked keto onion rings with cheese are a dead ringer for the deep fried breaded variety and take less than 30 minutes to prepare.

Slicing onions into thick rings and baking them between a layer of shredded cheddar and mozzarella are the secrets to achieving the perfect keto onion ring recipe. A touch of buffalo seasoning adds a nice heat.

Simply use two donut pans for easy baking. I used silicone donut pans making it super easy to remove the keto onions rings after baking.

Pair them with a juicy lettuce wrapped turkey burger or a lean beef burger as a meal or serve them as a party appetizer at your next get together. Not only are they low carb onion rings but they can also pass for a bread less pizza.

Ingredients needed and substitutions:

• Cheddar Cheese - I used a blend of reduced fat cheddar and mozzarella cheese. Feel free to use your favorite cheese.
• Sliced Onion - For this recipe I used a red onion and a yellow onion.
• Flavor God Seasonings - I used the Pizza, Buffalo and Everything Seasoning for this batch of healthy cheddar onion rings.

How to make this recipe:

1: Peel your onion and cut into ½ inch slices and separate into rings.

2: Spritz your donut pan with olive oil spray to prevent sticking. Now sprinkle a layer of shredded cheese into your donut ring.

3: Now add a raw onion ring on top of your shredded cheese.

4: Now sprinkle your shredded cheese on top of your onion ring covering it completely.

5: Once all your donut slots are filled with the ingredients sprinkle with your favorite seasoning and place in the oven for 10-15 minutes at 400 degrees F.

6: Remove from oven, let cool and eat!

Expert Tips:

• If you are using the silicone donut sheets to prepare your homemade keto onion rings try sitting them on a baking pan this way they are easy to place in the oven and remove from the oven.
• For extra crispy onion rings try double baking them. Once you have removed them from the oven and cooled them. Take a couple of the onion rings and place them on a sheet of parchment paper in the air fryer for 5 minutes at 360 degrees and you will get the best onion cheese crisp.
• For any leftovers just freeze them in a Zip Loc bag. They are perfect as toppers for burgers. I like to place the frozen onion rings in the air fryer on top of my veggie burger..gourmet style!
• If you want a low carb breading for your onion rings you can just crush up pork rinds, dip your rings in an egg wash then dunk in almond flour for a low carb batter then back in the egg wash and then dip in the crushed pork rinds.
