Air Fryer Apple Pie Snack
Golden, flaky hand pies filled with tender cinnamon apples, cooked quickly in the air fryer for a warm and comforting treat that tastes just like classic apple pie in snack form.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 medium apples, peeled and diced, about 2 cups
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 sheet refrigerated pie crust
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 350 degrees F for 3 minutes.
- In a mixing bowl, combine diced apples, granulated sugar, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, lemon juice, cornstarch, and melted butter. Stir until evenly coated.
- Line the air fryer basket with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Cut the pie crust into circles or squares. Spoon a small amount of apple filling into the center of each piece, fold over, and seal the edges with a fork. Brush the tops with beaten egg.
- Place the assembled pies in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes until golden brown and crisp.
- Allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving so the filling can set slightly.
Notes
- Do not overfill the crust to prevent leaking during cooking.
- For extra crunch, sprinkle a small pinch of sugar on top before air frying.
- Reheat leftovers in the air fryer for 3 to 4 minutes to restore crispness.
