Veggies :Oven baked onion rings

Having tried deep frying onion rings, I've also experimented with oven baked onion rings to create a healthier alternative to this sinful yet delicious finger food. Here's what I did...
Oven Baked Onion Rings












Ingredients:
1 large yellow onion, cut into rings (Only bigger rings are used)
1 tbsp milk
1 egg white

Crumb Mixture
Breadcrumbs
2-3 tbsp cornmeal
(Optional)
1 tsp paprika
(Optional)
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper

Method:
1. Mix all ingredients under crumb mixture together.

2. Mix milk and egg white together.

3. Dip onion rings in milk and egg white mixture.

4. Next, dip into crumb mixture.

5. Repeat steps 3 & 4 for thicker crumbs coating
6. Lightly grease oven tray with olive oil and preheat at 200 degrees. Bake for around 30 minutes at 170 degrees, flipping onion rings after approx. 10 minutes (Baking time varies from oven to oven. Best gauge is when onion rings turn golden brown)
