Air Fryer Apple Fries

Step 1

Peel the apples. Using a sharp knife or a fry cutter, slice the apples into thin strips. Set aside.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the flour with the apple pie spice. Whisk well.

Step 3

Whisk the eggs in a separate dish.

Step 4

Working in small batches, toss the apple fries into the flour, scoop them up using a slotted spoon, and shake off the excess flour.

Step 5

Then dip each apple fry into the whisked eggs, shake off excess egg and then place them back into the flour and spice mixture. Turn to coat.

Step 6

Make sure all of the apple fries are coated, but that the extra flour has been shaken off. This is important so that they crisp up. Place them on a wire rack with parchment paper underneath. The parchment will catch any excess flour that falls off, making it easy to clean up.

Step 7

Preheat the air fryer to 325ºF.

Step 8

Spray the bottom of your basket generously with cooking spray (or I like to use oil in a spray bottle). Place the apple fries in the basket so they are not overlapping. Generously spray the tops of the fries with additional cooking oil.

Step 9

Cook for 5 minutes, turn the apple fries, spray them again and cook for an additional 5 minutes.

Step 10

Remove the fries and place onto another cooling rack or basket and immediately sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. You want the fries to be hot when sprinkling with sugar so that the sugar sticks. (There is no sugar in the flour mixture so the apple fries won't be very sweet without this!)

Step 11

Cook additional batches of apple fries and toss with cinnamon sugar while still warm.

Step 12

Make the icing by whisking the confectioners sugar, vanilla and milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, in a small bowl.

Step 13

The fries are best served immediately. Serve the icing as a dip with your fries or drizzle it over them.
