Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large apples (Honeycrisp, Gala, or Fuji work best)
- 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil or unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup of your favorite crunchy granola
- Optional: A pinch of sea salt or a scoop of Greek yogurt for serving
Instructions
- Start by washing and drying your apples. You can leave the skin on for extra fiber or peel them if you prefer a softer texture. Core the apples and slice them into even wedges, about 1/2-inch thick. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Toss the apple slices in the mixture until every piece is thoroughly coated in the spiced glaze.
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 2 minutes. Arrange the coated apple slices in the air fryer basket in a single layer to ensure even cooking. If your basket is small, work in batches. Air fry the apples for 8 to 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through. Once the apples are tender and slightly browned, sprinkle the granola evenly over the top and air fry for an additional 2 minutes until the granola is toasted and fragrant.
- Carefully remove the warm apples and granola from the air fryer using a spatula or tongs. Transfer the mixture to individual serving bowls. For an extra touch of decadence, add a dollop of Greek yogurt, a drizzle of almond butter, or even a small scoop of vanilla bean ice cream. Serve immediately while the apples are steaming and the granola is at its crunchiest.
