Saw this and had to try. Yummy.

Baked Bloomin' Onion

1 large onion (I wanted Vidalia, but yellow was the biggest one they had)
For the Egg Wash:
3 eggs
1/4 cup water
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon yellow mustard

For the Crumbs:
3/4 cup cornflake crumbs
1/4 cup parmesan cheese or corn starch
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon oregano
Cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper to taste
A couple tablespoons of melted butter and/spray

Preheat the oven to 425ºF.
In one bowl, beat together the eggs, water, paprika, garlic powder, and mustard. In another bowl mix together the cornflakes, parmesan or corn starch, garlic powder, paprika, oregano, cayenne, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
Cut about 1/2 inch off the top of the onion and peel the skin off. Cut the tip of the root off so the onion can stand on it. Cut the onion into about eight wedges being very careful not to cut all the way through (leave about 1/2 inch).
Dip the onion in the egg mixture, spooning it between each "petal". Once it's completely coated toss it in the crumbs, once again spooning it between each petal. Repeat this process, coating the onion once more in the egg mixture and then a final time again in the crumbs (use every bit of the crumbs you can).
Place on a well greased baking sheet. Drizzle with melted butter and/or oil. Then you can give it a final spritz of cooking spray (PAM or something) to make sure the whole thing is coated. Bake at 425ºF for about 45 minutes. Serve with remoulade.

That does look delicious. I'm going to have to try that too!
I love your photo with the German Shepherds! My favorite breed also.
We had two when I was younger and they were the best dogs.
