Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 2 large Apples or 3 small
  • 2 Tablespoons butter
  • 2 Tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Apples: Cut apples into slices about ½ inch thick, discarding the core to ensure only the sweet, edible parts are used.
  2. Melt Butter: Place the butter in a microwave-safe bowl and heat it in the microwave until melted, or melt it gently on the stove over low heat.
  3. Mix Coating: Stir the brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract into the melted butter until fully combined and smooth.
  4. Coat Apples: Add the apple slices to the cinnamon mixture and stir thoroughly so each slice is evenly coated with the sweet cinnamon butter blend.
  5. Air Fry: Arrange the coated apple slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook at 380°F (193°C) for 10 minutes, checking occasionally to ensure even cooking.
  6. Serve: Remove from the air fryer and serve warm as a delightful dessert or snack.

Notes

  • Ensure all apple slices are well coated with the cinnamon sugar mixture for best flavor.
  • If your air fryer basket tends to stick, lightly brush or spray it with oil before adding the apples.
  • Cooking times may vary based on the type and thickness of apple slices, so check the apples around the 8-minute mark to adjust time as needed.
  • You can peel the apples before slicing if you prefer a skinless texture.
