Crispy Parmesan Onion Rounds: The Ultimate Savory Snack

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.

Step 2: In a small bowl, mix the paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using).

Step 3: Place small piles of Parmesan cheese (about 2 tablespoons each) on the prepared baking sheet, spreading them into 3-inch circles.

Step 4: Gently press an onion slice onto each Parmesan circle.

Step 5: Brush the top of each onion round with avocado oil and sprinkle with the spice mixture.

Step 6: Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crispy.

Step 7: Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to firm up, then carefully remove with a spatula.

Step 8: Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.

Storage Information

Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For best texture, re-crisp in a 375°F oven for 3-5 minutes before serving. Avoid storing in the fridge, as this may cause the crisps to lose their crunch.
