Description
Delicious air fryer apples, seasoned with cinnamon and butter for a warm and cozy treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 small/medium apples (Gala, Fuji, Honey Crisp), cored and sliced
- 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon, separated
- 1 tbsp canola oil
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
- 2 tbsp sugar
Instructions
- Prepare the Apples: Start by slicing your apples just before cooking to keep them fresh and crisp, preventing browning.
- Season with Care: Sprinkle the sliced apples with 1 1/21/2 teaspoons of cinnamon and drizzle with 2 tablespoons of melted butter.
- Air Fry the Apples: Place the seasoned apple slices into the air fryer in a single layer. Cook for 10 minutes.
- Check for Sauciness: When the cooking timer goes off, poke the apples gently with a fork. They should be tender with a bit of syrupy goodness.
- Serve & Enjoy: Scoop the air-fried apples onto a plate and enjoy the warm, cozy aroma.
Notes
- Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
- Choose firm varieties like Gala, Fuji, or Honey Crisp for the best taste and texture.
- If your apples start to brown while prepping, slice them right before air frying.
- For saucier apples, consider adding an extra tablespoon of melted butter after cooking.
- If apples are cooking too quickly, check them every two minutes after the halfway mark to prevent burning.
- To enhance flavor, increase the cinnamon or add apple pie spice.
- Reheat in the air fryer at 350 degrees F for about 5 minutes, checking for warmth.
- Serve air-fried apples over pancakes or waffles for breakfast. Top with vanilla ice cream for dessert.
