Fat Ronnie’s Fried Onion Rings
Between 1974 – 1976 in Topeka Kansas when our family was young we would stop for a bag of onion rings before we spend the day at the pool. The onion rings were always served in a brown paper bag.

I’m “Fat Ronnie’s” wife. He would be so glad to see so many people still enjoying the food he prepared! For a time, he had two restaurants in Topeka – both with a sub sandwich counter, a Mexican food counter, and a BBQ counter. He enjoyed all of the foods he prepared but I think the most popular were the onion rings and mushrooms. Ron died in 2014 after a long battle with diabetes and lots of diabetes-related complications.
Thank you for dropping by! I love that we still get to keep a piece of him around with us! We had a lot of good times enjoying his food!
What would an air fryer conversion be? These sound amazing!
I don’t think these will work, the batter runs off long before these cook through.
Hello
Could I USE GLUTEN FREE FLOUR instead ?
You could use it, but I don’t think the results would be exactly the same. These were really amazing onion rings.
my family decoured them!!! Thank you so much, i made them jiffy quick. BettyLou
