    These seasoned Air Fryer Sweet Apples are an amazing healthier dessert you can make in less than 20 minutes! The perfect gluten and dairy free dessert!

    Sometimes I want a little something sweet but I don't want a full blown dessert like cake or ice cream, and these Air Fryer Sweet Apples are the perfect filler for that craving!

    Sweet enough to be a dessert and healthy enough to be a side dish, it's the perfect in between.

    I LOVE the crunch of the cooked but not completely softened apples covered in sweet seasonings like clove, cinnamon, and brown sugar.

    These are best when they're hot out of the air fryer, and luckily they cook up quickly for an easy after-dinner treat!

    This sweet treat is as easy as dice, stir, cook!

    1. Dice the apples into bit sized pieces.
    2. Combine all the spices and remaining ingredients into a bowl. Mix to combine.
    3. Place all your ingredients in an oven-safe bowl large enough for mixing and coat the apples thoroughly with your water and seasonings. Then, put your bowl in the air fryer basket — or on your air fryer toaster oven tray.
    4. Next, cook on air fryer mode at 350 degrees F for 6 minutes. After cooking, stir well and cook for another 2 minutes. Serve warm and enjoy!

    WHAT APPLES ARE BEST FOR COOKING?

    When cooking with apples, you're looking for different things than you might want for a raw apple.

    For this recipe, I recommend Granny Smith apples because their texture cooks well and the tartness balances out the sugar and cinnamon here.

    However, Pink Lady, Honeycrisp, and Golden Delicious apples are also great for cooking pies or Air Fryer Sweet Apples! If you like sweeter apples, try Gala apples.

    HOW TO SERVE AIR FRYER SWEET APPLES

    These "baked" apples are great on their own, but also play well with others!

    Much like apple pie, these sweet apples go great with ice cream a la mode.

    Looking for more savory ideas? Throw these in with some homemade oatmeal for your own cinnamon apple oatmeal!

    These apples will last up to 5 days in the refrigerator, so they're a great night snack and next morning breakfast treat!

    WHAT TYPE OF BOWL SHOULD YOU USE?

    We get a lot of questions about the container that we use in our air fryer recipes. The "pot" came with a set I bought from amazon.

    It is hard to find the "pot" in a small set or individual, but sometimes you can. You can see it here.

    Pro Tips

    • Use Any Air Fryer: This recipe can be made in an air fryer unit with a basket or an air fryer oven. If you're using an air fryer oven, place your food on the middle rack and select the "air fry" function.
    • Check your food as it cooks! Since each air fryer runs differently, sometimes air frying is a trial and error process. When cooking a new recipe, be sure to check on your food often. This will help you avoid over or undercooking, and help you learn your air fryer's specific ways!

      Those apples look amazing! Any idea what I can use instead of pumpkin spice? Can't find it here in Sweden 🙁

        You can actually make your own 🙂 More specifically you will need 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, ½ teaspoon ground allspice, ¼ teaspoon ground cloves.
