This is one of my favorite treats. Cinnamon Apple Fries: a single apple sliced, coated with pulverized graham cracker crumbs and baked in the air fryer. They are delicious on their own, but SINFUL when dipped in creamy Greek yogurt sweetened with a drizzle of honey or maple syrup.
These apple fries are reminiscent of apple pie without all the extra ingredients. There are a ton of options you use to coat the apple slices other than graham crackers: gingersnap cookies, oatmeal cookies, teddy grahams, pretzels– the possibilities are endless!
