How did I never think to do this? This idea is genius! My fave foods in 1!

Sometimes, after a long day at work, I crave a snack that's both indulgent and fits into my low-carb lifestyle. Enter: Low Carb Bacon Wrapped Onion Rings. These delicious treats combine the smoky goodness of bacon with the sweetness of onions, all while keeping things keto-friendly. Whether you're throwing a weekend barbecue or just treating yourself to a midweek pick-me-up, these onion rings are sure to hit the spot.

These bacon wrapped onion rings pair perfectly with a fresh, tangy coleslaw or a simple green salad to balance out the richness. If you’re aiming for a heartier meal, try serving them alongside grilled chicken or a bunless burger. A good dipping sauce like spicy mayo or a creamy ranch can also elevate the experience.

Servings: 4

2 large onions
1 lb bacon
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp paprika
Salt and pepper to taste

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Peel and slice the onions into thick rings, about 1/2 inch wide. Separate the rings.

Mix garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in a small bowl and sprinkle over the onion rings.

Wrap each onion ring with bacon, overlapping slightly to ensure full coverage. You might need more than one slice of bacon per ring, depending on the size.

Place the bacon-wrapped onion rings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and fully cooked.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.

For a twist, try using turkey bacon for a leaner option. You can also experiment with different seasonings like cayenne pepper for a spicy kick, or a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese for added flavor. If you have an air fryer, these can be cooked at 375°F (190°C) for about 15 minutes, turning halfway through for an even crispier result.
