Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 1 large onion, cut into rings
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 large eggs
  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste
  • Cooking spray (for air fryer)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Prep the Onions: Start by peeling your large onion and slicing it into rings. Aim for about 1/2-inch thickness for the perfect crunch.
  2. Create the Breading Station: In one bowl, whisk the two large eggs until frothy. In a separate bowl, combine the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper.
  3. Bread the Onion Rings: Dip each onion ring into the egg mixture, ensuring it’s fully coated. Next, transfer it to the almond flour mixture, pressing lightly to ensure the coating adheres.
  4. Air Fry: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray the basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Arrange the coated onion rings in a single layer, making sure they don’t touch. Air fry for about 10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they turn a beautiful golden brown.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Once done, remove your Air Fryer Keto Onion Rings and let them cool for a minute. Serve them warm with your favorite dipping sauce—just watch them disappear!

Notes

Substitutions: Try adding a pinch of garlic powder or smoked paprika to the almond flour mixture for extra flavor. Ensure all substitutes remain Halal-friendly. Keep an eye on the cooking time during the last few minutes, as air fryers can vary in performance. Ensure each onion ring is well-coated in both the egg and the almond flour mixture to prevent sogginess and ensure a delightful crunch. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze them for longer storage.
