  • Total Time: 18-20 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 large crisp apples (Fuji, Honeycrisp, or Gala work great)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup panko bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Cooking spray or oil spray

Instructions

  1. Wash and core the apples, then cut into evenly sized strips approximately 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick.
  2. Set up three bowls: one with flour, another with beaten eggs, and the third with panko bread crumbs mixed with cinnamon, sugar, and salt.
  3. Dredge each apple strip in flour, dip into beaten eggs, then coat thoroughly with the cinnamon-sugar panko mixture. Press gently to ensure adhesion.
  4. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
  5. Arrange the coated apple strips in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Lightly spray with oil or cooking spray.
  6. Cook for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
  7. Remove from air fryer, drizzle with honey if desired, and serve hot with your favorite dip.

Notes

  • Use firm, fresh apples to prevent mushiness.
  • Uniform slices ensure even cooking and crispiness.
  • Avoid overcrowding the air fryer; cook in batches if needed.
  • Try seasonings like vanilla sugar or a dash of cayenne for extra flavor.
