Even elders can still recognize onion rings as one of the best comfort foods out there. Just make sure your oil is at the right temperature or they will turn out soggy or burnt

Yields:

Prep time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

• 2 large onions, cut into slices

Instructions:

Whisk the flour and baking powder in a medium sized mixing bowl until well combined.

Stir the buttermilk and sugar in until you get a smooth batter.

Add 2-3 of peanut oil into a stockpot and bring it up to 375 F.

Submerge the onion rings in the batter to coat them completely and then carefully lower them into the hot oil.

Fry for 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown on all sides.

Carefully remove them from the oil and transfer them to a paper-towel lined plate to drain any excess oil.

Sprinkle them with salt and serve warm. Enjoy!
