Paleo Onion Rings or Blooming Onion Option

4.5 star :: "fried" amazingly crisp rings or fun blooming option

By Jenalee Marshall


Blooming Onion or Onion Ring Option (wet versus dry batter)

5 small Onions or 2 large 1 Egg 1/2 cup Blanched almond flour 1/2 cup Tapioca flour (I used cassava) 1/2 tablespoon Spanish Paprika 1/2 teaspoon Sea salt 1/2 tsp garlic powder 1/4 teaspoon Cayenne pepper 1/4 tsp turmeric 2 tablespoons Coconut oil (melted)


Umami Dipping Sauce (Horseradish fry sauce) 1/4 cup Avocado mayonnaise 1/2 tablespoon Paleo ketchup (or any ketchup if not strict paleo) 1 1/2 tablespoons Prepared horseradish (the ingredients being horseradish, vinegar, salt) 3/4 teaspoon Cayenne pepper

1/4 teaspoon Turmeric 1/2 teaspoon Paprika 1/8 teaspoon Sea salt Black pepper (to taste)

1/2 tsp Garlic powder (optional)


Instructions (blooming) Cut the Onions: Start but cutting off a half inch of the pointy side of the onion, peel. Lay the onion with the cut side down. Start a half inch away from the top and cut straight down through the onion making 4 slits around. Repeat between the cuts until you have between 8-12 cuts. Or use Apple cutter. Flip the onion over and gently fluff out the petals

Dredge Preheat oven to 400° F and line a baking sheet with parchment or aluminum foil. In a small bowl whisk one egg, in another bowl combine the flours and spices. Dip an onion into the egg making sure to coat every petal inside and out. Let the excess fall off and gently toss in the flour mixture. I simply lay the onion in it and use a spoon to get the flour in every petal. Gently shake the excess off and place on the pan. Repeat until all onions have been coated.

Bake: bake for 15 minutes, 30 for large. Using a basting brush gently coat the onions with a bit of melted coconut oil. Return to oven for another 15 minutes. Check the color and see if they are crisp, if not broil under high heat for 5 minutes. Serve with the horseradish dipping sauce.


Instructions (onion rings...my fave method) Add water to dry batter until thick pancake consistency. coat pan with oil. Bake 400 for 15-20 min
