Air Fryer Apple Fries
Enjoy the delightful taste of apples transformed into crispy, sweet Air Fryer Apple Fries with warm cinnamon and a hint of sweetness—perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
For the Apple Fries
- 2 large large apples (such as Fuji or Gala) Use the freshest apples for best results
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour Can substitute with gluten-free flour or almond flour
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp butter, melted For added crispiness
- 1 tbsp brown sugar (optional) For extra sweetness
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- Peel and core the apples, then slice them into thin strips resembling fries.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, salt, and sugar until evenly mixed.
- Dip each apple strip into the beaten egg, allowing any excess to drip off before coating in the cinnamon-sugar flour mixture.
Cooking
- Arrange the apple fries in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they aren't overlapping.
- Lightly spray with cooking spray or drizzle with melted butter.
- Air fry for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through for even cooking.
- Once crispy, remove from the fryer and optionally sprinkle with brown sugar before serving.
Notes
Double-dip apple strips for extra crunch. Try adding nutmeg or vanilla extract for a unique flavor. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to two days and reheat in the air fryer.
