Ingredients
1Large Onionsliced into rings 1/2 inch thick
3tbspCoconut Flour
1/4tspSea Salt
2Large Eggs
2/3cupPork Rinds~1.8 oz
3tbspBlanched Almond Flour
1/2tspPaprika
1/2tspGarlic Powder
Instructions
Arrange 3 small, shallow bowls in a line:
Coconut flour and sea salt, stirred together
Eggs, beaten
Pork rinds, almond flour, paprika, and garlic powder, stirred together
Lightly grease 2 air fryer oven racks or an air fryer basket.
First dredge each onion ring in coconut flour. Dip them in the beaten egg mixture, then shake off the excess, then place in the pork rind mixture. Scoop extra pork rind mixture over each onion ring, to be sure it's coated on all sides. Place each ring into your air fryer rack or basket. Repeat this process for all the onion rings, placing them in a single layer without touching. (You may need to cook them in two batches if you don't have 2 air fryer racks.)
Preheat the air fryer or air fryer oven to 400 degrees F for 2 to 3 minutes.
For an air fryer oven: Place both racks into the air fryer oven. Bake for about 8 minutes, until the top layer is golden. Switch racks and bake for 8 more minutes, until the top layer is golden again.
For a regular air fryer: Only half the onion rings will fit into the basket in a single layer. Place the basket into the air fryer. Bake for 16 minutes, until golden. Remove the onion rings, arrange the next batch of uncooked rings, and repeat.
