Hello! How many of you use an air fryer? I just got one recently and mostly I use it to heat up my pizza. I am telling you, if you have left over pizza, put it in the air fryer the next day and it is delicious.
I was looking for something else to fix in my air fryer and I came across this recipe a friend had made. Air Fryer Onion Rings — don’t they look delicious. And I love onion rings. Let’s see, not too many ingredients , prep time 10 minutes, perfect. Let’s make them.
The only ingredient I am going to leave out is the cayenne pepper. I don’t want my onion rings spicy, but you might, so I will leave it up to you. I have everything to make these onion rings except buttermilk. So, I am going to the store to get some and make these crispy onion rings. I can’t wait. Let me know what you all think.
My next food to make in my air fryer is chicken wings.
I hope you enjoy this recipe. I will be back to tell you how good they are. Have a great week. Please send your favorite recipes to [email protected] or call me at 937-393-3456 and I will put you in the kitchen with Sharon. I am looking forward to hearing from you.
