Air fryer cinnamon apples are a delicious and healthy treat that can be easily made using an air fryer. Here’s a simple recipe to make them:
Ingredients:
- 2 medium-sized apples (any variety you prefer)
- 1 tablespoon melted butter or coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar or sweetener of your choice
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- A pinch of salt (optional)
- Optional toppings: chopped nuts, raisins, or a drizzle of honey
Instructions:
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- Wash the apples thoroughly and core them. You can peel the apples if you prefer, but leaving the skin on adds more nutrients and texture.
- Cut the apples into slices or wedges of your desired thickness. It’s a good idea to make the slices uniform for even cooking.
- In a bowl, combine the melted butter or coconut oil, brown sugar or sweetener, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt (if using). Mix well to create a cinnamon coating.
- Add the apple slices to the bowl and toss them gently until they are evenly coated with the cinnamon mixture.
- Place the coated apple slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. If needed, you can cook them in batches to avoid overcrowding the basket.
- Air fry the apples at 375°F (190°C) for about 8-10 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time. The cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of your apple slices and the desired level of softness.
- Once the apples are tender and golden brown, remove them from the air fryer.
- Allow the cinnamon apples to cool for a few minutes before serving. You can enjoy them as is or add optional toppings like chopped nuts, raisins, or a drizzle of honey.
- Serve the air fryer cinnamon apples as a tasty snack, a healthy dessert, or as a topping for oatmeal, yogurt, or pancakes.
Enjoy your homemade air fryer cinnamon apples!
