[Recipe] Apple Pies Using Airfryer


If you have too many apples in the fridge and an airfryer at home, this is the perfect recipe for you. 

That was what happened to me one day, so out came this recipe. I love how having the airfryer means that I did not have to add a single drop of oil to cook the apple pies, yet they came out all nice, fluffy and crispy.

Try this recipe too and have fun! If you have any other favourite puff pastry recipes too, let me know in the Comments below :)

Apple Pies Using Airfryer
Yields 20 pieces

Ingredients
(A)
40g butter
4 apples, sliced & diced (see below)
55g white sugar
25g brown sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt

(B)
3 large sheets of frozen puff pastry
1 egg, beaten

Directions

1) Heat butter over a boiling pan until the butter bubbles.

2) Put remaining ingredients of (A) into the pan. Cook over medium fire and constantly stir for 10 min until the apples become soft.

3) Cool the apple mixture.

4) Meanwhile, preheat airfryer at 180 degrees for 5 min.

5) Remove frozen puff pastries from freezer. Thaw for 15 min. 

Tips: Thawing time can be reduced if the puff pastry is placed on top of the warmed-up airfryer.

6) When puff pastries are slightly softened, run a knife to cut into 9 smaller squares. Apply a layer of egg wash around the sides of each square. The egg wash helps to seal the sides later.

7)  Add a spoonful of apple onto the middle of the puff pastry square.

8) Fold down the top half of the square so it becomes a rectangle. Using the back of a fork, push down the edges to seal the apple into the puff pastry. Poke a few holes at the top to enable steam to be released. Brush a thin & even layer of egg wash on the top, bottom and sides of the uncooked apple pie.

9) Repeat for the remaining apple pies. Store in fridge on parchment paper if not yet ready to airfry.

10) Place 4 apple pies in the basket. Bake in airfryer at 180 degrees for 8 min.

11) Turn the apple pies with bottom face-up. Continue to bake in airfryer at 200 degrees for 3 min. The whole apple pie would now be golden brown all over. You are now ready to serve!

Frozen Potato Wedges Using Airfryer


Nothing beats having some quick potato wedge snacks, so this time, I used those out of a frozen pack.

At 200 degrees 5 min, they turned out really crispy and yummy! No need to defrost. No need to flip while cooking. Fast and easy. I love the airfryer! :)

Frozen Nuggets Using Airfryer


I found some frozen Farmland chicken nuggets in the fridge and decided to try them out in the airfryer instead this time.

Directions

1. Remove the handle with the basket (if you are using the Philips airfryer). Lay some paper towels below the basket to absorb oil, as advised by the salesman. (It was a saviour! The excess oil could be drained away and it made cleaning much easier.)

2. Do not thaw the frozen nuggets. Place the nuggets in the air fryer and set at 200 degrees Celcius for 5 min. Open the basket to flip the nuggets over and continue at 200 degrees for another 5 min. Enjoy!

No need to add extra oil. Easy peasy and really fuss free. So happy!!!

Frozen Fish Fingers Using Airfryer


We always have Birds Eye Cod Fillet Fish Fingers at home. As we just bought the new airfryer, this seemed like the easiest item we had on hand to try the new machine out :)

At 200 degrees for 6 min, they turned out crispy and yummy! I did not have to turn the fish fingers over, and no drop of oil was used. Instead of using a fryer and dipping the fish fingers in oil, this was so much easier. Washing up was a much faster job too.

Indeed, this seems like the best investment and invention ever - looking forward to more adventures together!
