Instructions

  1. Prepare the Batter: In a large bowl, combine the pancake mix and salt. Gradually stir in the club soda until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.

    🥄 A smooth batter is key to a light and crispy coating. Don't overmix, as that can lead to a tougher texture!

  2. Slice the Onions: Carefully separate the onion slices into individual rings.

  3. Coat the Rings: Dip a few onion rings into the batter, ensuring they are well-coated. Allow any excess batter to drip off.

  4. Heat the Oil: In an electric skillet or deep saucepan, heat the oil to 375°F (190°C). Use a thermometer for accuracy to achieve that perfect fry!

  5. Fry to Perfection: Fry the onion rings in batches, about 2-3 minutes per side, or until they turn golden brown and puffed up.

    🔥 Be careful not to overcrowd the pan! This ensures even cooking and better crispiness.

  6. Drain and Serve: Once golden, drain the rings on paper towels, then season with additional salt while they are hot.

  7. Enjoy! Serve with ketchup, ranch dressing, or your favorite dipping sauce for an extra flavor boost!
