Air Fryer Apple Crisp

Today, I’m thrilled to share a delightful twist on a classic dessert: the Air Fryer Apple Crisp. This recipe not only brings a touch of nostalgia but also incorporates a modern cooking method that simplifies the process without sacrificing flavor.

Why Air Fryer Apple Crisp?

Using an air fryer for this apple crisp not only reduces cooking time but also provides a healthier alternative to traditional baking methods. The air fryer uses hot air to create a crispy, delightful texture without the need for excessive oil, making it a perfect choice for health-conscious dessert lovers.

Ingredients

• 4 medium-sized apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
• 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
• 1/4 cup of brown sugar
• 1/2 cup of old-fashioned oats
• 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup of cold butter, diced
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Instructions

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced apples with cinnamon and vanilla extract. Ensure the apples are well-coated.
2. In another bowl, mix the oats, flour, and brown sugar. Add the diced butter and use your fingers to mix until it forms a crumbly texture.
3. Place the seasoned apples in the air fryer basket. Sprinkle the crumbly oat mixture evenly over the top.
4. Set the air fryer to 350°F (175°C) and cook for about 15-20 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are bubbly.
