Instructions

To prepare the batter, add the granulated onion powder and garlic powder to the flour. Then, add the beer and stir until batter reaches the consistency of pancake batter.
To fry, heat oil to 350°F (177°C). Dip onion rings into batter and then slowly add rings into fryer. Fry on both sides until golden brown.
Remove onion rings from fryer and place on paper towels to allow excess oil to drain. Season with salt and serve with a spicy ranch dressing.
