Directions
1.
Lightly coat a very large baking sheet with cooking spray. In a small bowl stir together bread crumbs, melted butter, and salt. Spread about one-fourth of the crumb mixture on a sheet of waxed paper.
2.
Using a fork, dip the onion rings in the egg whites, then in the bread crumb mixture. Replace waxed paper and add more of the crumb mixture as needed.* Arrange the coated onion rings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
3.
Bake in a 450 degree F oven for 12 to 15 minutes or until the onions are tender and the coating is crisp and golden. Makes 6 servings.

Note
The crumb mixture will not stick if combined with egg white mixture. Use one-fourth of the crumb mixture at a time.
