Description
These crispy 2-ingredient onion ring chips are a savory, low carb snack made with sweet onion and parmesan cheese, baked until golden and perfectly crunchy.
Ingredients
1 large sweet onion
1 cup finely shredded parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Peel the onion and slice it into thin rings, about 1/8-inch thick. Gently separate the rings.
- Place small mounds of shredded parmesan cheese (about 1 tablespoon each) onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Press an onion ring into the center of each cheese mound and lightly flatten.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the cheese is melted, bubbling, and golden brown around the edges.
- Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 to 10 minutes until crisp.
- Carefully lift from the parchment paper and serve immediately.
Notes
For extra flavor, sprinkle garlic powder, Italian seasoning, or red pepper flakes over the cheese before baking.
Mix parmesan with a small amount of mozzarella for a softer center texture.
Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and allow chips to cool fully before removing.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days with a paper towel to absorb moisture.
Reheat in a 375°F (190°C) oven or air fryer for about 5 minutes to restore crispiness.
