Ingredients

  • 2 medium apples (such as Honeycrisp, Gala, or Fuji), cored and sliced into fries
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or melted coconut oil
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)
  • ¼ teaspoon salt (optional, enhances sweetness)
  • Optional toppings: maple syrup, caramel sauce, peanut butter, whipped cream

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Prepare the apples: Wash and core the apples. Slice them into fries, about ½ inch thick. The shape doesn't have to be perfect, just try to keep them relatively uniform in size for even cooking.
  2. Toss with oil and spices: In a large bowl, toss the apple fries with the olive oil (or melted coconut oil), cinnamon, nutmeg (if using), and salt (if using). Make sure all the fries are evenly coated.
  3. Arrange in air fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) if it requires preheating. Arrange the apple fries in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Don't overcrowd the basket, as this will prevent them from getting crispy. You may need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
  4. Cook: Cook for 10-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the apple fries are tender and slightly caramelized. The exact cooking time will depend on your air fryer and the thickness of your apple slices.
  5. Serve: Serve immediately while warm and crispy. Drizzle with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, caramel sauce, peanut butter, or whipped cream, if desired.

Notes

  • Apple Variety: Use a firm apple that will hold its shape during cooking, such as Honeycrisp, Gala, Fuji, or Granny Smith.
  • Oil: You can use olive oil, melted coconut oil, or another neutral oil for coating the apple fries.
  • Spices: Feel free to adjust the spices to your liking. You can add other spices like cardamom, ginger, or allspice.
  • Crispiness: For extra crispy fries, you can cook them for a few more minutes, but be careful not to burn them.
  • Toppings: Get creative with your toppings! You can also try a sprinkle of brown sugar, chopped nuts, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce.
