Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- Soak the onion rings in buttermilk for at least 30 minutes.
- In a shallow bowl, mix together flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
- Remove the onion rings from buttermilk and let excess liquid drip off.
- Dredge each onion ring in the flour mixture, then dip back into buttermilk, and finally coat with panko breadcrumbs.
- Drizzle olive oil over the coated onion rings and toss to coat evenly.
- Place the onion rings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not overcrowded.
- Air fry for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove from the air fryer and let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- For extra flavor, add cayenne pepper to the flour mixture for a spicy kick.
- Ensure the onion rings are in a single layer for even cooking.
- Serve with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch or ketchup.
