Instructions
Onions
Separate rings and remove cores from sliced onions.
Breading Station
Place coconut flour on a plate, beat eggs in a shallow bowl, and combine pork rind crumbs, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper in another dish.
Dredge each onion ring: coat in coconut flour, dip in egg, press into pork rind mixture, dip again in egg, and finish in pork rind crumbs.
Frying
Heat oil in a deep pan over medium-high until shimmering (around 350°F).
Fry rings in batches for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden and gently sizzling.
Transfer to paper towels to drain, let rest briefly, and season with extra salt if desired.
Notes
Chill the coated rings for 5 minutes to help the crust adhere and reduce bits in the oil.Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days; re-crisp in a 375°F oven for 5 minutes.
