This Apple fries air fryer recipe is the perfect sweet treat—golden, crunchy, and so easy to make! Serve them warm with caramel sauce for a dessert your family will love!
Start by thoroughly washing your apples, then slice them into even wedges, removing the core from each piece.
Lightly coat each apple wedge with flour, ensuring they are completely covered. This helps the subsequent layers adhere better.
In a small bowl, beat together eggs with a splash of water until well combined. Dip the flour-coated apple wedges into this egg wash, allowing any excess to drip off.
Combine cookie crumbs and sugar in a separate bowl. Roll the egg-dipped apple wedges in the crumb mixture until they are evenly coated on all sides. (Double coat for extra crunch if you prefer).
Arrange the coated apple wedges in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they do not touch for even cooking. Set the air fryer to 400°F and cook for 7-8 minutes or until the coating is golden and crispy.
Serve the crispy air fryer apple wedges warm, accompanied by a side of caramel sauce for dipping. Enjoy the sweet and crunchy treat!
