Just my easy version of battered(not breaded) onion rings. I like them sliced very thin, where the onion almost disappears when done, but you can slice the onions thicker, if you like. Also, this batter is great on other veggies, too! Prep time incl... More

Ingredients
  • 3 medium onions, sliced to your preference(I use a mandolin to get them VERY thin)
  • 1 1/2 cups dry baking mix(I have used, and don't like Jiffy brand, because it's sweeter--Bisquick is my preference)
  • 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
  • 1T cayenne pepper(I use more--the heat doesn't stay as much as you might think, so over season, just a touch)or several dashes hot sauce
  • 2t sea or kosher salt
  • 2t fresh ground black pepper
  • Peanut oil for frying
  • Sour Cream Ranch Dipping Sauce
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • about 1t each of dill, garlic powder, onion powder, chives, salt and pepper
  • combine all ingredients and let set in fridge while making rings

Directions
  1. Soak onion rings in buttermilk for at least 15 minutes or so(longer is fine)
  2. Set oil to heating in dutch oven or deep fryer(I use my cast iron) to about 350-365
  3. Meanwhile, combine baking mix with salt and peppers.(if using hot sauce rather than cayenne powder, add this with milk in next step.
  4. Pour off milk from onion rings into dry ingredients about 1/2 cup at a time, and mix gently until combined and is at a good texture. Not too thick, or too thin. Batter should stick to the rings, but not clumpy.
  5. Let batter rest about 5 minutes.
  6. Drop rings into batter in batches and toss to coat, separating rings a bit, as you get ready to drop them(carefully!!) into the oil.
  7. Fry onions in small batches(as always with frying, make sure oil gets back to temp in between) until just golden brown. This should only take a couple minutes.
  8. Drain on paper sacks or towels
