Paula Deen’s Crispy Creole Onion Rings
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 tsp Creole seasoning
2 large egg whites
2 c panko bread crumbs, (I crush them further)
2 large sweet onions, sliced and separated into ½” thick rings
Heat over to 450 F. Coat two rimmed baking sheets with cooking spray.
Whisk together flour and 1 tsp of the seasoning in a small bowl. In a third bowl combine panko and remaining 1 tsp seasoning.
Dredge onion rings in flour mixture shaking off excess. Dip in egg whites, letting excess drip off. Dredge in panko mixture to coat, and place on prepared pans. Coat onion rings lightly with cooking spray.
Bake 6 minutes. Turn onion rings and bake until lightly browned 4-6 minutes longer. Serve immediately.
