Air Fryer Onion Rings

Ingredients

• 2 large onions
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• salt and pepper (to taste)
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tablespoon milk
• 2 cups panko breadcrumbs
• cooking spray

Instructions

1. 1

   Prep the Onions:: Start by peeling your onions and slicing them into ¼-inch thick rings. Separate the rings carefully.

2. 2

   Season the Flour:: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. This is where the flavor starts, so feel free to get creative with your seasonings!

3. 3

   Egg Wash and breadcrumbs:: In another bowl, beat the eggs and milk together. Place the panko breadcrumbs in a third bowl. Panko gives that extra crunch we all love.

4. 4

   Dredge the Rings:: Now, take each onion ring and first coat it in the flour mixture, then dip it into the egg wash, and finally coat it well with the breadcrumbs. Ensure each ring is well covered for that perfect crunch.

5. 5

   Air Fry:: Preheat your air fryer to 392°F (200°C). Arrange the onion rings in a single layer in the air fryer basket (you might need to work in batches). Spray them lightly with cooking spray. Air fry for about 10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.

6. 6

   Serve Hot:: Serve these golden beauties immediately. They're perfect with a side of ketchup, ranch dressing, or your favorite dipping sauce.
