Ditch the deep fryer in favor of this quick and easy recipe for Crispy Baked Onion Rings. Syn free, delicious and perfect for the Slimming World follower.

Homemade onion rings don’t have to be unhealthy – this version coats the onion rings in Smash and spices to give them a healthy coating and a kick of flavour.
I absolutely LOVE onion rings and so does Mrfatgirlskinny. It’s one of those things that if I see them on a menu, I almost always give in to temptation to order a side!

Is this recipe classed as a tweak on the Slimming World plan?
Firstly, what is a tweak? A tweak is when you use a particular Syn free food in a way it is not meant to be consumed. I.E here we are using Smash as a coating rather than cooking it to eat fully expanded.
Here is my own personal opinion as a Slimming World veteran…
I would not tweak this recipe, back in 2015 tweaks did not exist in the SW community either.
Eating this recipe now and then as never affected my weight loss but this is your journey so I will leave the decision to you.
