Apple Fritters in Air Fryer are a delicious, light dessert perfect for a snack or even for breakfast. Some time ago, I prepared the version of apple and almond fritters and baked apple fritters. I wanted to prepare this very light version and I must tell you that they are a taste explosion; in fact, the sweetness of the apples is fully retained.
You can also customize the recipe by flavoring it with grated lemon zest or cinnamon, taking care to match the most suitable type of apple, such as Renetta or Granny Smith. Finally, you can accompany everything with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

How to Make Apple Fritters in Air Fryer
In a large bowl, beat the egg with the sugar and grated lemon zest, then slowly pour in the milk.
Incorporate the flour and finally the baking powder, then mix and set aside.
Peel two large apples and remove the central core with the appropriate tool.
Next, dip them in the batter, then transfer them to the air fryer lined with parchment paper. Cook at 356°F (180°C) for about 10 minutes.
If your air fryer has only one resistance, adjust accordingly: after 10 minutes, open and check if they don’t seem cooked, extend the cooking.
