AIR FRYER KETO ONION RINGS
The air fryer is our favorite way to make keto onion rings! Here are some tips and tricks:
- Be sure to press the breading firmly into the onion rings before heating. A few air fryers have a fan that blows coating off. Try freezing the coated onions for about 10 minutes if you do press the coating in firmly and are still having issues.
- These can stick, leaving the coating behind. We prefer using an air fryer liner for this recipe.
- Be sure not to overcrowd these – the air should be able to circulate around them. Most probably, you will need to heat in batches.
- As Air fryers vary in performance, so you need to make sure that you keep a close eye towards the end of the cooking time. You might need to heat longer or shorter.
- Don’t forget to spray the fryer and the onion rings with oil.
