Air Fryer Apple Fries are tender-crisp and covered with a sweet graham crust with a hint of cinnamon and brown sugar. Dipped into gooey and warm caramel sauce, these are absolutely heavenly!
Air Fryer Apple Fries are, quite frankly, addicting. The sweet and tart apple wedges are covered with cinnamon-sugar graham coating then air-fried until the crust is crunchy and the fruit is tender. Then, simply warm up your caramel sauce and enjoy!
Are air-fried Apple fries healthy?
Healthier than deep-fried, definitely. Also, compared to regular French fries, these have much fewer carbs.
In particular, these are highly nutritious fruits with lots of fiber, Vitamin C, potassium, Vitamin K, plus various antioxidants. In addition, apples are great at keeping you full thanks to their complex carb content.
Finally, this dish also has very little fat since we’re air-frying them instead of deep-frying the pieces like most recipes for these fruit fries.
As a result, this dish is a healthy snack option if you’re craving something crunchy and delicious!
Air fryer apple fries ingredients
- Apples: We prefer using Gala due to their crisp, dense texture and sweetness.
- Flour: A light coating of flour allows the other breading layers to stick to the fruits.
- Egg: Beat about 3 eggs. This is our second dip, and makes each fry extra crispy!
- Graham crackers: Crush them manually or using a processor into very fine crumbs. This our last breading layer, and we’re seasoning it with spices (nutmeg and cinnamon) plus brown and white sugars.
- Caramel sauce: This rich and sweet dip takes them out of this world!
How to make apple fries in the air fryer
- Prep the fruit. After peeling and taking out all the core, chop the fruit into wedges.
- Prep your breading “station.” In the first bowl, place the flour. The beaten eggs go into the second bowl. Finally, mix the Grahams with all the seasonings in a third bowl.
- Coat. Take your fruit wedges. First, dredge each wedge lightly in flour. After that, dunk it into the egg. Lastly, roll in the spiced graham crumbs. When you’re done with all the wedges, open the air fryer’s basket and spray/brush it with your preferred oil.
- Cook. Place the coated fruit wedges into the basket in a single layer, double-checking that they don’t overlap. Give them a light spray of oil. Air-fry at 380F for 5 mins., flip, then cook for 2 mins. more.
- Serve. Enjoy hot with a small bowl of warm caramel sauce.
