FAQs
1. Can I make these ahead of time?
Yes! You can prepare the onion rings and refrigerate them, unbaked, for up to 24 hours. When you’re ready to serve, just bake them as directed.
2. Can I use sweetened coconut?
While you can use sweetened coconut, I recommend sticking with unsweetened for this recipe to avoid the rings becoming overly sweet. The natural sweetness from the onions and coconut is all you need.
3. What can I use instead of panko?
If you don’t have panko, regular breadcrumbs will work. However, panko gives the onion rings a lighter and crispier texture.
