Ingredients
Scale
- 2 firm apples (Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Fuji)
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- Cooking spray
Instructions
- Wash, peel, and core the apples. Slice them into wedges about ½ inch thick.
- Set up your coating station with three bowls: flour in the first, beaten eggs in the second, and a mixture of panko breadcrumbs, sugar, and cinnamon in the third.
- Dip each apple wedge into the flour, then the egg, and finally into the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring it’s fully covered.
- Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 3 minutes.
- Place the coated apple slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, avoiding overcrowding.
- Spray the tops of the apple wedges lightly with cooking spray.
- Air fry for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
- Let the apple fries cool for a minute, then serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
Use firm apples for the best texture. Serve immediately for optimal crispiness. Experiment with spices like nutmeg or cardamom for a unique twist.
