How To Make Air Fryer Apple Fries

  • Prepping these apple slices sort of compares to getting chicken ready to fry. It’s all about the “layered” coating.
  • Toss the wedges into the flour. Next, dredge them in the beaten egg. And finally, roll them in the sugar and crushed graham cracker mixture.

The recipe isn’t hard, and not terribly time-consuming. Betcha your family will love them!

What Are The Best Apples To Use?

For this recipe, we used Gala apples. They’re sweet, they smell great, and the texture makes them ideal for this recipe and lots of others. Gala apples are truly an all-purpose apple.

The best apples to use for this recipe really depends on your taste though. If you are looking for a tart taste, then Granny Smith, McIntosh or Pink Lady are what you want. If you are looking for a sweet apple flavor, then Golden or Red Delicious, Gala, Fuji, or Honeycrisp work well.
