We saw a bunch of viral recipes for cheese-loaded, keto-style onion rings online and had to jump on the trend! (They’re not like other onion ring recipes, because these have no breading.) Our 3-ingredient recipe calls for shredded Parmesan, and in a more reasonable amount than some other recipes we’ve seen…

HG Alternatives: Before baking, top the cheese with chopped bacon, pickle chips, pepperoni, sliced jalapeños, or olives. So many possibilities!

HG Tip: If the onion rings don’t easily slide off the parchment paper after cooling, flip the paper upside down and peel it off the cheesy onions.
