Air fryer baked apples have quickly become a beloved treat in our household. They caramelize to perfection in the air fryer, filling the kitchen with an irresistible aroma.
Just toss them in the air fryer basket, set the timer, and in just thirty minutes, you’re rewarded with a divine, comforting dessert. For an extra dash of flavor, top them with a sprinkle of cinnamon or cinnamon sugar.
Not only is this method straightforward, but it’s also energy-efficient.
If you’ve got an air fryer, I can’t recommend this recipe enough. Give it a try!
It’s a quick, affordable dessert that’s equally perfect as a side dish for dinner or lunch.
And there you have it—baked apples from an air fryer, potentially even tastier than those made in a traditional oven.
Baked Apple in Air Fryer
Ingredients
- 4 apples
- 2 tbsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Preparing apples for the air fryer is a breeze. Simply wash them, place them in the air fryer, and add a bit of water underneath the basket to prevent any water from reaching the grid.
- Set the air fryer to 355°F (180°C) and the timer to 15 minutes.
- Halfway through, flip the apples and cook for another 15 minutes at the same temperature.
- After 25 minutes, take a peek to check on the apples. Depending on their type and size, they might be ready. Test their softness with a needle; if they're still slightly firm, let them bake for another 5 minutes.
- Fancy a bit of spice? Sprinkle some cinnamon or cinnamon sugar on top just before serving.
