Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 2. Slice the onion into thick rings and separate them gently. 3. In a mixing bowl, combine chickpea flour, cornmeal, paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. 4. Gradually add water to the dry mixture until you achieve a smooth batter. 5. Dip each onion ring into the batter, ensuring they are well coated, and place them on the prepared baking sheet. 6. Lightly spray the rings with cooking spray or drizzle with olive oil for extra crispiness. 7. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through. 8. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
