Air Fryer Onions
Description
The Air Fryer Onions recipe involves preheating the air fryer, lightly oiling the basket, and tossing sliced onions with a spray of cooking oil. The onions cook for about 25-30 minutes with shaking every five minutes to ensure even coloring and crisping. The result is golden, crispy onions that maintain tenderness inside while developing a slightly caramelized flavor on the outside. Different onion varieties such as red, white, yellow, or shallots can be used depending on preference. Once cooled, the fried onions can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one month, making them convenient for topping salads, burgers, or casseroles. The air frying method reduces the amount of oil needed compared to traditional frying while still achieving a crispy texture.
Ingredients
- 4-5 onion cut in half then thinly sliced
- cooking oil or olive oil spray
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 265F (130 C) for 5 minutes.
- Lightly spray air fryer basket with oil, then add the sliced onions to the basket and spray them gently with oil and toss to coat evenly.
- Cook in the air fryer for 25-30 minutes total, setting a timer for every 5 minutes to shake the basket and toss the onions around. Once golden brown and crispy, onions are ready.
- Allow fried onions to cool completely before storing in an air tight jar in the fridge for up to one month.
Notes
- Red, white, yellow onions, or shallots can be used interchangeably for varying flavors.
- Store cooled fried onions in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one month.
