AIR FRYER BLOOMIN' ONION
Blooming onions are the ultimate appetizer. From their pretty presentation to their restaurant-quality flavor, this crispy, sliced dish is addicting, especially when dunked in just the right sauce. If you'll looking for something to pull apart that's not totally fried, just grab your air fryer. It's a cinch to make if you've got the expert tips, and our Test Kitchen is here to dish.To create a crunchy, breaded texture and a fully cooked onion that holds its signature shape, be sure to start with a large onion. If you have the time, soak your onion in cold water overnight to allow it mellow a bit and "bloom" better. Use deep, small bowls for dunking so you don't have to handle the onion as much, which can mess up the petals. After the first dunk, let the onion sit for 5 minutes and double dunk. The first dunk will give the second round of batter a good hold so it sticks and coats better. Serve it immediately (it doesn't sit well!) with some cold beers and dipping sauce, and it will be devoured in no time.

Steps:
- Prepare the Onion: Cut about 1/4-inch from top of onion; cut root end of onion so that it stands up on a flat surface. Remove and discard peel. Starting at top of onion, cut vertical slices at 1/2-inch intervals to within 1/4-inch of bottom of onion. Place onion in a bowl with cold water to cover, and chill at least 2 hours or up to 24 hours.
- Meanwhile, whisk together eggs, milk, and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt in a medium-size deep bowl. Whisk together flour, paprika, garlic powder, mustard, cayenne, cumin, black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt in a separate medium-size deep bowl. Cover and chill egg mixture until ready to use.
- Drain onion, and pat dry. Sprinkle onion with remaining 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, and wrap tightly in aluminum foil. Preheat a 6.3-quart air fryer to 350°F for 10 minutes. Place wrapped onion in air fryer basket, and cook 10 minutes. Remove from cooker, unwrap and remove foil from top and sides of onion. Let onion stand until cool enough to handle. Remove from foil, and carefully fan out petals of onion.
- Dip entire onion in egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off. Dip onion in flour mixture, making sure all petals are evenly coated. Tap off excess. Allow onion to stand 5 minutes. Dip onion again in egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off; dip again in flour mixture again, tapping off excess. Place onion in air fryer basket, and liberally coat with cooking spray. Cook at 350°F until crispy and golden brown, about 25 minutes.
- Prepare the Sauce: Stir together all ingredients. Serve onion immediately with sauce.

Steps:
- Cut the top off of the onion (pointed end) to create a flat surface.
- With root side up (the hairy looking circle), cut "flower petals" just below the root. Cut the onion into 4 wedges first, then cut each wedge in half. Repeat until wedges are about 1/4 inch thick. You should end up with "petals" all around the onion.
- When you turn the onion over, it will look like a flower "bloom". Gently separate the layers.
- Mix flour with Cajun seasoning in a medium-sized bowl. Mix eggs and buttermilk in a separate medium-sized bowl. Then pour Panko bread crumbs in a third bowl.
- Dredge the onion in flour and shake off the excess. Dip into the egg mixture, coating evenly. Then finally dip into the Panko breadcrumbs and toss around the breadcrumbs to ensure full coating coverage.
- Put the Panko-crusted onion into the air fryer basket. Spray the entire onion with oil. Place a piece of foil over the onion, like a tent.
- Set the air fryer to 390 for 10 minutes. Remove the foil and cook for another 5-10 minutes until desired crispiness. Your cook time may vary, depending on the size of the onion.
- Mix dipping sauce ingredients together and serve with the warm blooming onion. Enjoy!
