Ingredients
Scale
- 3 large apples (preferably Fuji or Honeycrisp)
- 2 tablespoons of coconut sugar or brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for extra sweetness)
- Non-stick cooking spray or olive oil spray
Instructions
- Wash the apples thoroughly and cut them into uniform fries or wedges. Toss the apple slices in lemon juice to prevent browning.
- In a small bowl, combine coconut sugar, ground cinnamon, and nutmeg. Toss the apple slices in this mixture, ensuring even coating. Drizzle with honey or maple syrup if desired.
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray the air fryer basket with non-stick spray. Arrange apple slices in a single layer without overcrowding.
- Air fry for 10-12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even crisping. Keep an eye on them to prevent over-browning.
- Transfer the crispy apple fries to a serving dish. Dust with extra cinnamon or drizzle with honey. Serve immediately with your favorite dips or enjoy plain.
Notes
- Choose crisp, tart apples for best texture and flavor.
- For extra crispiness, avoid overcrowding the basket.
- To store leftovers, keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in the air fryer for 2-3 minutes at 350°F (175°C).
- Different spices like ginger or allspice can be added for variety.
