Crispy Vegan Baked Onion Rings

How to cook food with no oil started out to be a challenge eating a whole food plant based diet. However, I found that I can bake foods in the oven, use my airfryer and for dishes requiring cooking on the stove, I use water instead of oil. I played around with several recipes to come up with my recipe for crispy vegan baked onion rings. This is an easy recipe with only a few ingredients. They come out of the oven cripsy and delicious, especially when I use a sweet onion. They make a great snack, and my husband and I eat the whole batch fresh out of the oven. I found that adding panko bread crumbs instead of regular bread crumbs give them an extra crunch taste. Our friends also love them. You may be able to substitute oat flour for gluten free, but I have not tried that version yet. These crispy vegan baked onion rings would also make a nice addition to my Chick Salad Sandwiches. https://susansveganjourney.com/vegan-oil-free-chick-salad-sandwich/
