FAQs
Can I use any type of apple?
Yes, firmer apples like Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Fuji work well because they hold their shape and provide a good balance of tartness and sweetness.
Do I need to peel the apples before air frying?
Peeling is optional. Leaving the skin on adds texture and nutrients, but you can peel them if you prefer a softer texture.
