Why my air fryer frozen Onion rings are dry?

Most frozen foods that have been made in the US are already pre-cooked with the use of oil already included, which will play its job later with cooked with the use of the air fryer.

However, you should keep in mind that not all brands are created equal, well, while most of the food that you will cook with the use of the air fryer including Alexia onion rings don't need any extra oil to give you that crispiness and not end up dry, tho some need that little oil boost.

Just simply spray the brand of onion rings you using with vegetable or olive oil using an EVO Oil Sprayer, either spray them at the begging or halfway through cooking when it's time to shake the air fryer basket.
