Air Fryer Copycat Burger King Onion Rings -- Craving the unmistakable crunch and flavor of Burger King's iconic onion rings but prefer to skip the drive-thru?

Ingredients 

  • 1 large sweet onion, sliced
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • 2-3 large eggs
  • 2 cups Panko bread crumbs

Instructions

  • Cut your large sweet onion into thick slices, about 1/2-inch (1.25 cm) wide then separate the rings and set them aside.
  • In a shallow bowl, place the Panko bread crumbs. In a second bowl, combine the flour, salt, garlic powder, black pepper, and paprika. Mix them well
  • In the third bowl, whisk the eggs until they are well beaten.
  • Dip each onion ring into the flour mixture, making sure it's coated evenly.
  • Next, dip the flour-coated onion rings into the beaten eggs.
  • Roll each egg-coated onion slice in the breadcrumb mixture. Make sure the onion rings are fully coated
  • Place the coated onion rings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and lightly spray them on both sides with cooking spray to help them get a golden-brown and crispy texture.
  • Transfer the onion rings to the air fryer basket, arranging them in a single layer without overcrowding. Air fry the onion rings at 400 degrees F (200°C) for 6 minutes. Carefully flip the onion rings over using tongs halfway through the cooking process.
  • Keep air frying them for another 6 minutes until the onion rings turn golden brown and crispy. Once they are fully cooked, remove them from the air fryer and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil
  • Allow the crispy onion rings to cool for about 5 minutes before serving them with your favorite dipping sauce
