Notes
Ninja Foodi And Instant Pot Dou Crisp Directions | If you own a Ninja Foodi you can make this blooming onion, just use the crisping lid. The same goes for the Duo Crisp, use your crisping air fryer settings. Time: All air fryers heat slightly different, so the cooking time can vary a bit depending on the size of your onion. Monitor the time and remove when the onion is a nice, rich golden brown.Swap with gluten-free flour for sensitivities. Spritz your battered onion with cooking spray to help brown up your onion.Cutting: Place two wooden spoons on either side of the onion and cut through the onion until the wooden spoons stop the knife. This prevents any accidents of cutting all the way through.
