    How to make frozen air fryer onion rings? 

    When you’re ready to cook your Frozen onion rings in air fryer, here’s what you need to do:

    Purchase your favorite frozen onion rings. Once you have your frozen rings in hand, transfer them to the air fryer basket. No need to thaw out as it will make the rings soggy. 

    Next, cook the first batch.  Depending on the size of your bag, you can air fry the onion rings at once. We used a 16 oz. Frozen onion ring bag. Spread the rings in a single layer in the air fryer basket. 

    Drizzle with olive oil. Air fry them at 360 for 12 to 15 minutes (longer if needed and depending on your air fryer) carefully lipping halfway. Take them out when they’re crisp and brown around the edges.

    Best frozen air fryer onion rings Tips

    For the best frozen air fryer onion rings tips, consider the following:

    • Work in batches. It’s essential that you spread the onion rings in a single layer in the air fryer basket. If your air fryer is not large enough, this method will work well as it will allow even cooking. 

    If the onion rings are too crowded, this will cause the rings to steam up.

    • Crisp them up to your liking? If the frozen onion rings are not quite crispy yet, adjust the time using 2-minutes increments. I recommend checking your first batch after 12 minutes and adjust the time as necessary.  
    • Season your frozen onion rings. Although they will already be covered in batter. Be sure to season them to your liking.
