Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 medium apples Choose firm varieties like Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Fuji.
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 spray cooking spray For preventing sticking

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Begin by washing and slicing your apples into fry-shaped pieces, aiming for uniform thickness—about 1/4 inch.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon. Toss the apple slices in this mixture until evenly coated.
  3. Spray the air fryer basket lightly with cooking spray to prevent sticking and preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
Cooking
  1. Place the coated apple slices in a single layer in the preheated air fryer basket, avoiding overcrowding.
  2. Cook the apple fries for approximately 12-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking until golden brown and crispy.
  3. Remove the apple fries from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before serving.

Notes

For a unique twist, consider using spices like nutmeg or ginger. Check doneness frequently towards the end of cooking to avoid burning. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to a month. To reheat, cook at 350°F for 5-7 minutes.
