Onion rings Sonic have gathered a loyal fan base for a good reason. I recently had the chance to try them again and here are my reviews about it.

This gives each bite a delightful combination of crispy and sweet flavors that is hard to find anywhere else.

Homemade Sonic Onion Ring Recipe

If you are reading from another country like the UK, Australia, or any other country and have no Sonic restaurant nearby but still want to try these tasty rings? Today, I am going to teach you my personal recipe. I personally make it at my own place and they taste the same as Sonic.

Ingredients:

• 4 large Texas Sweet Onions which are sliced into rings
• 2 cups cornmeal
• 1 cup of all-purpose flour
• 1 cup of melted vanilla ice cream
• 1 cup water
• Vegetable oil (enough for frying)

Directions:

1. Prep the onions: Peel and slice the onions into 3/8 to ½-inch thick rings. Separate the rings and place them in a large bowl of water. This helps remove any betterment and ensures they stay crisp while frying.
2. Set up your dipping stations: In three separate containers, place the flour, melted vanilla ice cream, and cornmeal.
3. Coat the onion rings: Shake off any excess water from the onion rings and dip them into the flour first. It ensures each ring is lightly coated. Next, dip it into the melted vanilla ice cream and then by the cornmeal. Make sure that the rings are fully coated with a nice crispy layer of cornmeal at the end.
4. Let them set: Place the coated onion rings on a cookie sheet and let them rest for a few minutes to allow the batter to set.
5. Fry the rings: Heat the oil to 350 degrees Fahrenheit in a deep fryer. Carefully fry the onion rings in small batches for about 3-4 minutes or until golden and crispy. Do not overcrowd the fryer as it can affect the cooking time and crispiness.
6. Drain and Serve: Once you notice golden brown color of rings, remove the onion rings and drain any excess oil on paper towels. Now, serve them with your favorite dipping sauce like ketchup or ranch.

Bottom Line

Sonic onion ring is a perfect crispy texture and sweet flavored snack. It makes them a standout snack or a side dish. These onion rings are not like traditional rings you find in other fast food restaurants. The onion rings come in three or sometimes four sizes. Each size offers a satisfying experience.

You can also customize the rings according to your requirements. This feature makes it stand out from other fried onion rings. Their availability across the U.S. ensures that no matter where you are, you can indulge in this fan favorite delight.
