Air Fryer Cherry Crisp
Description
The Air Fryer Cherry Crisp uses fresh pitted and halved cherries, sweetened with maple syrup and enriched with melted non-dairy butter and a hint of almond extract. The cherries are cooked in an air fryer-safe dish at 350°F until softened, and the mixture is stirred once to ensure even cooking. Granola is sprinkled on top near the end of cooking to create a golden, crisp topping.
This method yields a warm dessert with a tender, juicy cherry base and crunchy granola top, balancing textures and flavors. Serving with non-dairy ice cream or whipped cream complements the fruitiness and adds creaminess.
Air fryer temperatures may vary, so starting with less cooking time is recommended to prevent burning the cherries. Using vegan and gluten-free granola supports dietary restrictions if desired. Cherry pie filling is an alternative to fresh cherries if preferred.
