Ingredients

Scale

2 large sweet onions

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

2 eggs

1/4 cup milk

Cooking spray


Instructions

Peel the onions and cut off the tops, leaving the root intact. Cut each onion into quarters vertically, stopping just before the root, so they stay together.

In a shallow bowl, mix flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

In another bowl, whisk together eggs and milk.

Dip each onion into the flour mixture, coating evenly, then into the egg mixture, and back into the flour mixture, ensuring all surfaces are covered.

Place the coated onions in a single layer in the air fryer basket, spray lightly with cooking spray.

Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

Remove from air fryer and let cool slightly before serving.
