Crispy, golden, and oven-baked — these Keto Onion Rings skip the fryer and deliver crunchy perfection with just Parmesan cheese and egg whites. Low-carb, gluten-free, and high-protein.
1 large yellow onion
1–2 egg whites
1 cup finely grated Parmesan
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp smoked paprika or cayenne (optional)
Salt and black pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment or a wire rack.
Slice onion into 1/4–1/2 inch rings. Separate and set aside.
Whisk egg whites in a bowl until frothy.
In another bowl, mix Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and pepper.
Dip each ring in egg white, then coat in Parmesan mixture.
Place on baking sheet and bake for 18–22 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Let cool 2–3 minutes before serving.
For extra crunch, broil briefly at the end.
Serve with your favorite keto-friendly dip.
Store in fridge up to 2 days and reheat to crisp up.
