A search on Google will turn up a few recipes for baked onion rings but you're
never going to get them to taste like fried. There's a recipe for them on
allrecipes.com that uses cornflakes but it got terrible reviews. One reviewer
said they didn't taste like onion rings but more like cereal and onions, yuck!
If your onion rings are too greasy then your grease may not be hot enough.
Properly fried foods shouldn't absorb any oil. The only oil in them should be
what's left on the breading after you take them out of the fryer.
