Perfect for dipping in ranch, spicy mayo, or honey mustard
Ingredients
1 package of Farm Rich Sweet Onion Petals (frozen)
Cooking spray or parchment liner (to prevent sticking)
1 tsp olive oil (optional, for extra crispiness)
½ tsp garlic powder (optional, for added flavor)
½ tsp paprika (optional, for a smoky touch)
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Air Fryer
Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and let it preheat for about 3-5 minutes. Preheating ensures the onion petals start crisping up immediately when placed in the air fryer.
Step 2: Prepare the Sweet Onion Petals
Remove the frozen onion petals from the packaging and place them in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding to allow for even cooking.
Lightly spray with cooking spray or brush with olive oil to enhance crispiness.
If desired, sprinkle with garlic powder and paprika before air frying for extra flavor.
Step 3: Air Fry the Onion Petals
Cook at 375°F for 8-10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even crisping.
For extra crunch, cook an additional 1-2 minutes at 400°F at the end.
The onion petals should be golden brown and crispy on the outside, while the onion inside remains soft and sweet.
Step 4: Serve & Enjoy
Transfer the crispy onion petals to a plate and let them cool for 1-2 minutes before serving.
Garnish with grated Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley for added flavor.
Serve immediately with a side of ranch, spicy mayo, honey mustard, or chipotle aioli.
How to Serve These Sweet Onion Petals
Classic Appetizer: Serve with warm ranch dressing or creamy garlic dip for dipping.
Game-Day Snack: Pair with mozzarella sticks, wings, and soft pretzels for a complete spread.
Spicy Twist: Drizzle with hot sauce or sprinkle with Cajun seasoning for extra heat.
Pro Tips for Best Results
Check halfway through cooking to prevent over-browning.
