Description
These Air Fryer Apple Fritters are a modern twist on a classic favorite with a fluffy dough and sweet apples, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups chopped apples
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Oil spray for air frying
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt until everything is well combined.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, combine the milk, egg, and vanilla extract. Whisk them together until smooth.
- Unite the Mixtures: Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Fold in the Apples: Gently fold in the chopped apples, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter for that lovely fruity flavor.
- Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C). This step is crucial to achieving those perfectly golden fritters!
- Prepare the Air Fryer Basket: Spray the air fryer basket with oil spray to prevent the fritters from sticking.
- Drop Spoonfuls into the Basket: Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the air fryer basket, ensuring there’s enough room between each fritter for them to cook evenly.
- Add a Touch of Oil: Spray the tops of the fritters with a little more oil spray to encourage that crispiness we all adore.
- Air Fry to Perfection: Air fry for about 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the fritters are golden brown and cooked through.
- Cool and Serve: Allow to cool slightly before serving, allowing those warm, cinnamon-sugar aromas to envelop you completely!
Notes
These fritters can be paired with vanilla ice cream or caramel sauce for an extra touch of indulgence.
