Pro Tips For The Best Air Fried Apple Cookies

The air fryer is having a moment, and with fall upon us, there’s no better time to experiment with this handy appliance. While the air fryer is typically associated with savory dishes like chicken tenders and french fries, it can also be used to make sweet treats like apple pies and cookies. Here are a few tips for making the best air-fried apple cookies:

• Choose the right apples: For this recipe, you’ll want to use tart and firm apples, such as Granny Smith apples. Avoid softer apples like Red Delicious, as they will turn mush when cooked.
• Dice the apples into thin slices: This will help them cook evenly in the air fryer.
• Don’t overcrowd the basket: Air frying works best when there’s plenty of space around each cookie. If you overcrowd the basket, your cookies will be soggy.
• Serve warm: These cookies are best served warm, straight out of the air fryer. Add a scoop of ice cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce for an extra-special treat.

How To Store Air Fryer Apple Cookies

Fall is the perfect time to break out the air fryer and whip up some delicious treats. One of our favorites is air fryer apple cookies. They’re quick and easy to make, and they taste amazing. Here’s how to store them, so they stay fresh and delicious.

First, make sure the cookies are completely cooled before you store them. They’ll start to stick together and lose their shape if they’re even slightly warm. Once they’re cool, please place them in an airtight container or bag. We like to put a layer of wax paper between the layers of cookies to prevent them from sticking together.

If you want to keep your cookies fresh, you can store them in the fridge. Make sure to bring them back to room temperature before you eat them, or they’ll be tough to bite into. Enjoy!

How To Freeze Cookies

One of the best things about fall is all the delicious baking that comes with it. From pies to cookies, there are so many tasty treats to enjoy. If you’re looking for a way to enjoy fall baking without all the work, consider freezing your cookies.

This method is perfect for busy families or those who want to enjoy their cookies throughout the season. To freeze cookies, place them on a baking sheet and put them in the freezer. Once frozen, you can store them in an airtight container for up to six months. When you’re ready to enjoy them, take as many as you need and let them thaw at room temperature. Within minutes, you’ll have fresh-baked cookies that taste like they just came out of the oven!
