Air Fryer Sliced Apples with Cinnamon
Air Fryer Sliced Apples with Cinnamon and Walnuts is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy a classic treat. This super easy recipe combines the natural sweetness of apples with the warm spice of cinnamon and crunchy walnuts to create a perfect snack or dessert.
Ingredients
- 4 apples (sliced)
- 25 g brown sugar
- 15 g butter (melted)
- 1 tbsp crushed walnuts
- 1 tsp cinnamon powder
Instructions
- Start by washing and slicing your apples. You can peel them if you prefer, but I like to leave the skins on for the texture and nutrients.
- Slice the apples into even, thin pieces for even cooking.
- In a small bowl, mix the ground cinnamon, melted butter, and brown sugar. Toss the sliced apples in the mixture until they're well coated.
- Arrange the apple slices in a single layer in the basket. You may need to cook them in batches if your air fryer is small.
- Set your air fryer to 180°C - 360°F and cook the apple slices for 10-12 minutes, shaking the basket about halfway through. The apples are done when they are tender and slightly crispy on the edges.
Notes
- Don't cut your apples until you are ready to cook them as they will turn brown really quickly.
- Try to cut the slices as evenly as possible and shake the basket halfway through cooking for an even airflow.
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket, do it in batches if your air fryer basket is too small.
- While cinnamon is a classic choice, don't be afraid to experiment with other spices. Nutmeg, allspice, or a pinch of cloves can add interesting flavors to your apples. If you prefer not to use brown sugar, try sweetening your apples with a touch of maple syrup or a sprinkle of coconut sugar to add flavor.
