Cut the yellow onion and red onion into thick rings and separate them into individual rings.

Prepare the batter by mixing oat flour, ground flax, and walnut milk together until well combined.

Let the batter sit for about 5 minutes to thicken due to the flax.

Dip each onion ring into the batter, coating evenly.

Next, dip the batter-coated onion ring into the almond breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

Place the breaded onion rings on a baking sheet in a single layer.

Cover the baking sheet with foil for the first half of the baking time to ensure the onions cook through.

Bake in the preheated oven, covered, for the first half of the time, then uncover and continue baking until crispy.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
