For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of garam masala to the onion mixture. These bhajis are best served hot and fresh. Reheating may make them a little softer. Adjust the amount of chili powder to your preference. For a milder flavor, reduce or omit it altogether. If the batter is too thick, add a little more water, one teaspoon at a time, until it reaches the desired consistency.

Savor the delightful crunch of these baked onion bhajis, a lighter and healthier take on the classic Indian appetizer. Bursting with sweet onion flavor and aromatic spices, they're incredibly addictive and perfect for sharing (or not!).
