Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 4 Onions We like the Vidalia variety for its sweetness
  • 1/4 Cup Butter
  • 4 Tbs Butter
  • Salt
  • 1/4 Cup Parmesan Cheese Grated

Instructions
 

  • Gather your ingredients
  • Pre heat your air fryer to 350 F
  • Slice the onion at the top, making sure to leave the root intact
  • Leave the skin on the onion
  • Using your paring knife insert it into the middle of the onion on the side where you sliced it. You want to make a diviet to hold the butter, vinegar and rosemary.
  • Add a tablespoon of butter to each onion
  • Add a sprig of rosemary to each onion
  • Salt the onions generously
  • Drizzle the Balsamic into each divit
  • Once you smell the onions really cooking you can remove them and sprinkle the parmesan over them usually at about the 6 -10 minute mark
  • Return them to the airfryer for 5 more minutes or until the centers are soft and the tops are brown
