Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients:
- 2 large apples (such as Honeycrisp or Fuji)
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
- Prepare the Apples: Peel and core the apples, then slice them into fry-sized strips.
- Mix the Flour and Spices: In a shallow bowl, combine the flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- Beat the Eggs: In a separate bowl, beat the eggs.
- Coat with Breadcrumbs: In another bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs and sugar. Dredge each apple slice in the flour mixture, dip in the egg, then coat in the panko mixture, pressing gently to adhere the crumbs.
- Air Fry: Arrange the coated apple slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Lightly spray with non-stick cooking spray. Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
- Serve: Let the apple fries cool slightly before serving.
Notes
Notes:
- Best served warm with caramel sauce or vanilla yogurt for dipping.
- For extra flavor, add a pinch of salt to the breadcrumb mixture or try using crushed graham crackers instead of panko.
