Logan’s Cinnamon Apple Recipe Tips
- Cutting Your Apples: Since apples tend to brown quickly, you must fry them quickly after slicing. This is not a great recipe to prep ahead of time.
- Apples: For best results, choose fresh and firm apples. I have listed some of the best apples to air fry below.
- Timing: Since all air fryers are slightly different, you must watch the fruit as it fries up and remove it when the slices are soft.
- Crowding: Don’t crowd the air fryer basket! Allow plenty of space for the hot air to circulate around the apples!
Storing
- Storing: To store Logan’s Roadhouse Cinnamon Apples, allow them to cool completely before transferring to an airtight container. Store them in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days.
- Freezing: You can freeze the cinnamon apples by allowing them to cool, then transferring them to a freezer-safe bag or container. They will stay fresh for up to 2 months in the freezer. For best results, freeze without the glaze to prevent it from becoming watery.
- Reheating: To reheat, simply thaw the apples overnight in the fridge (if frozen). Warm them in the microwave for 1-2 minutes or heat in a pot on the stovetop over low heat until warm. If desired, you can add a bit more cinnamon sugar or butter to freshen the flavor.
What To Serve With With Logan’s Cinnamon Apples
Logan’s Cinnamon Apples are a deliciously sweet and warm side dish that pairs perfectly with various main courses. They complement the savory flavors of roast chicken, grilled steak, or pork chops, creating a balanced meal. For added texture and contrast, serve them alongside creamy mashed potatoes or buttery dinner rolls, perfect for soaking up the sweet cinnamon syrup. Grilled vegetables like zucchini and asparagus add a fresh, smoky note that pairs nicely with the apples, making this dish a versatile and flavorful addition to any meal.
