My favourite season is finally here, and that means apple picking followed by cooking 101 different recipes to use up the huge bag of apples! 

To change things up from the classic apple crisp and applesauce, I’m sharing a recipe inspired by a TikTok trend, with a few tweaks to make this dessert even easier to prepare and healthier, thanks to its high fibre content.

Ingredients

  • 125 ml (½ cup) whole wheat flour
  • 45 ml (3 tbsp) sugar
  • 15 ml (1 tbsp) ground flaxseed
  • 5 ml (1 tsp) baking powder
  • 5 ml (1 tsp) ground cinnamon
  • 80 ml (⅓ cup) original soy beverage (or oat beverage)
  • 15 ml (1 tbsp) vegetable oil
  • 1 apple

Preparation

  1. Line the Air Fryer basket with parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix the flour, sugar, flaxseed, cinnamon, and baking powder.
  3. Add the soy beverage and oil, then stir until the mixture is smooth.
  4. Slice the apple horizontally into 4 pieces, then remove the core using an apple corer or a small round cookie cutter.
  5. Dip each apple slice into the batter, ensuring it is well-coated, then place it at the bottom of the Air Fryer basket. Repeat for each slice.
  6. Cook the apple rings at 375°F (190°C) for 10 minutes.

Notes

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Best enjoyed warm—reheat in the air fryer for 3 minutes at the same temperature for optimal taste.
