Ingredients:

Apple Filling:

  • 1 medium-large sweet/tart crisp apple such as Granny Smith, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

Streusel Topping:

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 4 tablespoons all purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons old fashioned rolled oats
  • 2 tablespoons light brown suger lightly packed
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

Other:

  • 2 teaspoons unsalted butter cut into 2 pats

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Stir together all ingredients for the filling in a medium bowl. Let it sit until the apple starts to release its liquid, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a separate medium bowl, stir together all ingredients for the topping until crumbly.
  • Divide the apple filling (including juices) between 2 (10 to 12-ounce) air fryer-safe dishes. Cover each dish with foil.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 350F. Air fry for 15 minutes, and then carefully remove the foil.
  • Divide the topping between the 2 dishes, spreading it around evenly. Place 1 pat of butter on top of each.
  • Return to the air fryer and air fry (uncovered) until the topping is golden, about 5 minutes more.
  • Serve warm.

FAITH’S TIPS

  • What Type of Apple to Use: Granny Smith is my favorite type of apple to use for apple crisp. These apples keep their shape well even after cooking. Their flavor is sweet/tart, which is a nice balance to the sweet topping. However, you can use any type of sweet/tart crisp apple you like. Northern Spy, Braeburn, or Jonagold are all good options. If you use an apple that’s on the sweeter side, add 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice.
  • Make Ahead: You can make this apple crisp ahead of time! To do so, make it through step 4 in the recipe. After that, let the apple crisp cool and refrigerate (covered) for up to 5 days. Then when you want to serve them, the only thing you have to do is put the topping on and air fry for 5 minutes.
  • Apple Substitution: Instead of apples, I have successfully used peaches, pears, strawberries, and cherries (add 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice to the filling for each).
  • Canned Pie Filling: To save time, you can use canned pie filling. Put it into air fryer-safe dishes, top it with streusel, and air fry for 5 minutes.
