Cheddar Onion Ring Chips
Cheddar Onion Ring Chips are an easy, lower carb snack that offer a tasty alternative to traditional deep-fried onion rings.
Equipment
- Wilton muffin top pan
Ingredients
- 3 cups freshly shredded cheddar cheese
- 12 thinly sliced onion circles
- 24 candied jalapeños (or pickled jalapeño rings) drained and patted dry
- ¼ teaspoon creole seasoning (or seasoning of your choice)
Instructions
- Coat a Wilton muffin top pan with nonstick spray.
- Add freshly shredded cheddar cheese to each circle (about ¼ cup).
- Next, add an onion circle on top of the cheese and two pickled jalapeños on top of the onion. Sprinkle with a bit of creole seasoning.
- Bake at 400F for about 12-15 minutes or until the edges start to brown. Watch them carefully, as they can go from done to burnt quickly.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Then run a dull knife around the edges of the cheddar onion chips to take them out.
- Transfer to paper towel-lined plates to drain for 10 minutes and crisp up.
- Serve with marinara sauce for dipping if desired and enjoy!
Notes
You can also bake these on parchment paper. Mound portions of the cheese mixture on the baking sheets, with 2 inches between. Flatten them slightly with the back of the spoon. Proceed with the written recipe.
