Instructions
- Slice the ends off your onions, then cut them in half. Slice the onions into 1 inch petals and set aside.
- Mix all your dry ingredients in a bowl. Then mix the milk and egg in a separate bowl.
- To coat your onions, dip into the wet batter, then the dry batter, then back into the wet, and dry again. Set aside and repeat for all petals.
- Place the petals into the air fryer leaving a little space between them, working in batches. Lightly spray the tops of the onion petals with oil spray.
- Set the air fryer to 400 degrees for 4 minutes. Once done, turn the petals over carefully and spray the tops again. Cook for another 4 minutes, adding additional minutes if not browned.
- While the petals are cooking, mix the copycat bloom sauce ingredients together in a bowl.
- Serve with the sauce and enjoy!
