Best 4 Air Fryer Fritter Recipes

AIR FRYER FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat a 5.8-quart or larger air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions.
• Spray cooking spray on the bottom and sides of a small metal container, designed to be an inner pot, about 6 inches round and 4 inches high.
• Add butter for flavor, insert inner pot into the air fryer, and melt butter for 45 seconds. Add bell pepper and onion and fry for 2 minutes.
• Carefully remove the inner pot and stir in sausage crumbles. Sprinkle with Colby Jack cheese and set aside.
• Crack eggs into a bowl and stir until yolks and whites are well combined. Season with salt, pepper, and hot sauce; stir to combine. Pour egg mixture over the other ingredients in the inner pot and lightly mix everything together.
• Return inner pot to the basket of the air fryer and cook until the top of the frittata is lightly brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 12 minutes. Continue air frying in 30-second intervals until frittata has set. Serve warm or at room temperature with salsa.

AIR-FRYER APPLE FRITTERS

Steps:

• Line air-fryer basket with parchment (cut to fit); spritz with cooking spray. Preheat air fryer to 410°. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Add milk, eggs, lemon juice and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; stir just until moistened. Fold in apples. In batches, drop dough by 1/4 cupfuls 2-in. apart onto air-fryer basket. Spritz with cooking spray. Cook until golden brown, 5-6 minutes. Turn fritters; continue to air-fry until golden brown, 1-2 minutes. Melt butter in small saucepan over medium-high heat. Carefully cook until butter starts to brown and foam, 5 minutes. Remove from heat; cool slightly. Add confectioners' sugar, 1 tablespoon milk and remaining 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract to browned butter; whisk until smooth. Drizzle over fritters before serving.

AIR FRYER ZUCCHINI FRITTERS

Steps:

• Grate zucchini using the large teeth of a grater. Toss zucchini and salt together in a large colander and place in the sink to drain for 10 minutes.
• Put zucchini in the middle of a piece of cheesecloth; wrap cheesecloth around zucchini and squeeze to drain as much moisture from zucchini as possible.
• Mix Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, egg, 3 tablespoons bread crumbs, pepper, and garlic powder together in a large bowl. Stir in zucchini, shallot, and jalapeno until combined.
• Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place about 1/2 cup bread crumbs into a shallow plate or pie dish. Divide fritter batter into 7 portions. With oiled hands, gently roll each portion into balls. The batter will be very wet. Gently roll in the bread crumbs to cover on all sides. Continue with the rest of the batter. Pat the fritters slightly so excess bread crumbs fall off.
• Air fry fritters in 2 batches until browned, about 15 minutes per batch.

AIR FRYER APPLE FRITTERS

Steps:

• Preheat an air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place a parchment paper round into the bottom of the air fryer. Spray with nonstick cooking spray.
• Mix flour, 1/4 cup sugar, milk, egg, baking powder, and salt together in a small bowl. Stir until combined.
• Mix 2 tablespoons sugar with cinnamon in another bowl and sprinkle over apples until coated. Mix apples into the flour mixture until combined.
• Drop fritters using a cookie scoop onto the bottom of the air fryer basket.
• Air-fry in the preheated fryer for 5 minutes. Flip fritters and cook until golden, about 5 minutes more.
• Meanwhile, mix confectioners' sugar, milk, caramel extract, and cinnamon together in a bowl. Transfer fritters to a cooling rack and drizzle with glaze.
