Ingredients
  

For the Apple Fries
  • 4 medium Apples Use any variety you enjoy; no need to peel for added texture.
  • 2 tablespoons Cornstarch Adds an irresistible crunch to the coating; substitute with arrowroot if necessary.
  • 2 tablespoons Sugar Sweetens the coating; feel free to swap in brown sugar for a richer flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon Infuses warmth and spice; adjust based on your personal taste preference.
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt Enhances the sweetness; sea salt is recommended for a refined taste.
  • 1 tablespoon Oil Spray Prevents sticking in the air fryer; choose a mild oil like canola or olive oil.

Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by rinsing your apples thoroughly under cool water. Slice them into fry-like sticks, approximately 1/4 inch thick, ensuring to remove the core.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornstarch, sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Stir the mixture well until everything is evenly incorporated.
  3. Toss the apple slices in the bowl with the coating mixture. Using your hands, gently mix until each slice is evenly coated with the dry blend.
  4. Preheat your air fryer to 180°C (350°F) for about 3-5 minutes. While preheating, lightly spray the basket with oil to prevent sticking.
  5. Carefully arrange the coated apple slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, avoiding overcrowding.
  6. Air fry the apple slices for 8-10 minutes. Halfway through, gently shake the basket to ensure even crisping.
  7. Once your crispy apple fries are golden and fragrant, carefully remove them from the air fryer and serve immediately.
