Raw Vegan Onion Rings

Raw vegan onion rings?! Yep, you heard right! This is an incredible recipe for a healthy, "breaded" onion ring. Soaking the onions in almond milk first is what gives this recipe a very unique angle over other raw vegan onion ring recipes. Yum!

Ingredients
Almond Milk:

* 1 C soaked almonds

* 4 C water

Onion rings

* 1 Large Onion

* 4 C Almond Milk

* 3/4 C Almond Milk Pulp

* 1 C Ground Flax (3/4 C before grinding)

* 1 T. Smoked Paprika

* 1/2 t Ground Chipotle

* 1/2 t Salt

Methods/steps
Almond Milk:

1) Combine soaked almonds and water in blender. Strain through nutmilk bag. Save the pulp and dehydrate it.

Onion rings

1) Slice onions and place in zip lock bag with almond milk. Soak while pulp is dehydrating.

2) When pulp is done dehydrating, place in food processor with flax, spices and salt. Separate into two batches. If you use all of it at once, a lot of it will be come saturated and too wet to use. Splitting it into separate batches protects against waste.

3) Drain onion rings, RESERVING milk.

4) Dip onion ring in the milk, then in the almond flax mixture, dip in milk once again and then in almond flax mixture again to get a heavier coating.

5) Dehydrate for 6 to 8 hours until almost dry. You want the onions to retain a little moisture, the breading should be dry.

Additional Tips
Make sure to use a mild, sweet tasting variety of onion for this recipe!
