Ingredients
- 2 large yellow onions
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 egg
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup dry bread crumbs

- In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Dip onion rings into the flour mixture until coated; set aside.
- Whisk egg and milk into the remaining flour mixture until smooth.
- Dip the floured rings into the batter, then coat them with bread crumbs.
- Place the coated rings on a wire rack and let them sit for 15 minutes to help the coating adhere.
