1 - Toss apple slices in a tiny bit of oil (to stop them from sticking), and pour into the air fryer basket.
2 - Cook until tender. They don't look too appetizing yet but don't worry.
3 - Tip them into a bowl and toss with melted vegan butter, sugar, and cinnamon then stir to coat. A lovely sticky buttery glaze will be created!
Recipe FAQs
Crispy firm apples work best. Honey Crisp, Pink Lady, Empire, Jonagold, Braeburn, Fuji and Gala all work well. Granny Smith apples are great if you want a more sweet-tart flavour.
Yes, you can bake the apples in an oven. Toss in the oil then spread out on a lined tray. Bake at 400°F ( 200 °C) for about 25 minutes, or until soft and golden. Then toss with the other ingredients as per the recipe.
Recipe
Buttery Vegan Air Fryer Apples
Author:Ingredients
- 6 medium apples
- 2 teaspoons oil , such as vegetable, canola, sunflower, olive
- 1 to 2 tablespoons melted dairy-free butter , or refined coconut oil (or maple syrup)
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar (if you used maple syrup instead of butter use 1 tablespoon)
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon , or apple pie/pumpkin pie spice
RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT
INSTRUCTIONS
- Core the apples and cut into ¼ inch thick wedges or slices. I prefer to leave the peel on. Peel if you prefer though.
- Put the apple slices into a bowl and toss with the oil.
- Tip into your air fryer, spread into a single layer and air fry on 400°F for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden and soft. Give them a little shake halfway. All air fryers cook a little differently so keep an eye on them.
- When done remove the apples from the air fryer and spoon back into the bowl from earlier.
- Add the melted butter, sugar and cinnamon and stir well to coat the apples.
- Serve immediately.
