These golden rings of goodness provide all the satisfaction of traditional onion rings, minus the carbs.

Ingredients:

• 2 large onions, cut into rings
• 1 cup almond flour
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp onion powder
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2 large eggs, beaten
• Cooking oil for frying (such as avocado oil or coconut oil)

Instructions:

1. In a bowl, mix the almond flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
2. Dip each onion ring into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off.
3. Coat the onion rings with the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
4. Heat cooking oil in a deep frying pan or skillet over medium-high heat.
5. Carefully place the coated onion rings into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
6. Fry the onion rings for about 2-3 minutes per side or until they are golden brown and crispy.
7. Use tongs to transfer the fried onion rings to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Note: For a crisper result, you can double-coat the onion rings by dipping them in egg and almond flour mixture again.
