Ingredients
- 2 white onions (sliced into 1/4 inch thick rings)
- 2 cups shredded parmesan cheese
- Salt, garlic powder, and paprika, Italian seasoning (to taste)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Prepare your baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper and preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Create cheese mold. For each onion ring, start by adding about 1 tablespoon of shredded parmesan directly onto the parchment paper to create a small cheese “mold.”
- Place onion slice. Place an onion slice on top of the cheese.
- Add more cheese. Add another tablespoon of shredded parmesan over the onion ring.
- Press down. Gently press down with the back of a spoon to flatten slightly and help the cheese stick.
- Season the tops. Season the tops with salt, garlic powder, and paprika to taste.
- Bake for 15–20 minutes or until the cheese is golden and crisp around the edges. Place the prepared onion rings in the oven and bake until golden and crisp.
- Cool. Allow to cool for 10–15 minutes before serving so the onion rings can set and get extra crispy.
Notes
- Allow cooling time to help the onion rings set and achieve extra crispiness.
