Description
Delicious and healthier alternative to traditional fries, these crispy apple fries are perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large apples (Honeycrisp or Granny Smith)
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
- Prep apples: Peel (optional) and cut apples into fry-like sticks. Pat dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
- Set up coating stations: Bowl 1: Add flour. Bowl 2: Whisk egg and milk together. Bowl 3: Mix panko breadcrumbs, sugar, and cinnamon.
- Coat apples: Dredge each apple stick in flour, dip it into the egg mixture, then coat well with the breadcrumb mixture.
- Air fry: Lightly spray the coated apple fries with nonstick spray. Place in the air fryer basket in a single layer (work in batches if needed).
- Cook at 380°F (190°C) for 7–9 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until golden and crispy.
- Serve: Enjoy warm with caramel dip, yogurt, or whipped cream.
Notes
Choose Honeycrisp or Granny Smith apples for the best flavor. Ensure you dry the apple sticks well to help the batter adhere better. Experiment with toppings like nuts or chocolate chips.
