📝 What Are Air Fryer Apple Fries?
Air fryer apple fries are thin apple strips that are coated in a light cinnamon-sugar breadcrumb crust and cooked in the air fryer until the outside is crunchy and the inside stays tender and juicy. They taste like mini apple pie sticks and are perfect as a quick dessert, snack, or even party treat. Best of all, they require little oil and cook in less than 10 minutes.
