Easy Homemade Onion Rings
Friday nights out as a teenager sometimes included burgers, fries, onion rings and milkshakes. Every now and then I want to relive those days but don’t have a great place to grab them in my area so I can make Easy Homemade Onion Rings at home. Not only are they the perfect crispy outside with a great flavor but they are much cheaper and more fun than going out to the local burger place and buying them.
TIP: Pair these with our Homemade Buttermilk Ranch Dressing for a delicious treat!
