Delicious and so easy. Ours only took 5 minutes total in air fryer.

It was a good start. I used double the panko, and double the pepper. In addition, I added 2 tbsp of garlic powder and 1 tbsp of turmeric. My rings were thick, so I doubled the cooking time. I used avocado cooking spray, which means nooil smoke. They came out crispy and delicious!

This actually came out really good. The rings that I bought were hopelessly small and it would have taken hours to do each one individually; I ended up dumping big globs of rings through each step. The finally result was picked apart and dipped in cocktail sauce. I did not bother flipping the rings and kept them in for the full 7 minutes.
