Didn't want to mess with oil, etc. It made great onion rings.
Ingredients:
30 saltine crackers
4 cups kettle-cooked potato chips
2 medium onions, cut into 1/2-inch slices
1/2 cup flour, divided
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 large egg
Directions:
1. Process crackers and potato chips in a food processor.
2. Whisk the buttermilk, 1/4 cup flour, cayenne pepper, egg, salt and pepper to form batter.
3. Place the remaining flour, batter mixture, and saltine/potato chip crumbs in separate bowls.
4. Preheat oven to 450°F.
5. Take each onion ring and drop into the flour to create a dry surface for the batter to cling to. Tap off excess flour and drop ring into batter.
6. Using a fork, lift the ring out of the batter and allow excess to drip off and then drop into saltine/chip crumbs. Press the coating onto the ring and then transfer to a plate.
7. Pour 3 T. vegetable oil onto a half sheet pan and place into hot oven for 8 minutes.
8. Remove pan and tilt to distribute oil. Place the onion rings on the pan making sure none touch.
9. Put the pan back in the oven for 8 minutes. Flip rings over and bake another 8 minutes.
10. Remove from oven, salt & enjoy.
