Prep Time: 3 minutes

Cook Time: 12 minutes

Total Time: 15 minutes

Servings: 2

Ingredients

2 red apples (Pink Lady, Honeycrisp, or Gala), peeled, cored, and cut into 1-inch cubes
2 tablespoons real maple syrup, divided
1 tablespoon melted coconut oil (use refined for no coconut taste)
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat to 380°F and lightly spray the basket with non-stick spray.
Prepare Apples: In a mixing bowl, toss the apple cubes with 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and cinnamon.
Air Fry: Place the coated apples in the air fryer basket, ensuring they don’t overlap too much. Air fry for 10–14 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through. The apples should be golden, slightly crispy on the outside, and tender on the inside.
Add Final Glaze: Remove the apples from the air fryer and toss them with the remaining 1 tablespoon of maple syrup.
Serve: Enjoy the apples warm on their own, or pair them with vanilla ice cream, oatmeal, or yogurt for a delicious treat.

Notes

Maple Syrup Substitute: Honey can be used instead, but maple syrup adds the best flavor.
Oil Substitute: Olive oil can replace coconut oil if needed.
Storage: Best enjoyed immediately but can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Reheating: Warm leftovers in the microwave for 30–45 seconds.
