homemade onion rings and sauce

1 large organic onion

cold water bath

gluten free bread crumbs

3 flax eggs

1/2 c oat flour

oil for frying

cookie sheet lined with wax paper

large zip lock baggie

Sauce: 

2 T mayo

1 T sour cream

1 t minced garlic

dash (onion powder, parsley, cumin, smoked red pepper, cayenne pepper)

pinch of salt

Slice onion into 1/2 inch thick slices. Separate the rings and drop into a cold ice bath to remove skins. Place rings into baggie. Shake with oat flour to coat. This layer will help flax egg to stick. Next, dip each ring into flax egg, and last into bread crumbs. Shake off excess. Place rings onto lined cookie sheet. Place into freezer to set. I make these in batches and store into a large baggie. This way when I want rings I can just pull a few out and bake or fry.

Enjoy!
