Baked fennel and onions the simple and delicious side dish. Today I also prepared Baked Fennel with a simple and quick recipe. But to change things up and because I love onions, this time I added lots of onion slices to the fennel. The result was a tasty and special side dish, which I prepared in just a few minutes. Just thinly slice both the onions and the fennel and then sprinkle them with a simple and tasty breadcrumb coating. The fennel and onions are crunchy and so good that everyone loves them and they disappear in no time! For cooking, I’ll provide instructions for both the oven and air fryer.
