Step-by-Step Instructions for Crispy Onions
  1. Begin by peeling the large onion and slicing it into thin, even rings; aim for a thickness of about ¼ inch for uniform cooking.
  2. Prepare three shallow bowls: flour, beaten egg, and breadcrumb mixture with seasonings.
  3. Dip each onion ring into flour, then egg, and finally coat with breadcrumbs.
  4. Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 3 to 5 minutes.
  5. Lightly spray the air fryer basket with olive oil spray to prevent sticking.
  6. Arrange the coated onion rings in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
  7. Air fry the onion rings at 375°F (190°C) for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping halfway.
  8. Once golden brown, transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil.
