Ingredients

Scale

For the Apple Wedges:

  • 2 medium Gala apples
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 tablespoons sugar (for coating)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for coating)

For the Dipping Sauce:

  • 4 oz whipped cream
  • 1/4 cup caramel sauce

Instructions

Prepare the Apples:

  1. Wash the Gala apples and slice them into even wedges, ensuring they are about 1/4-inch thick.

Coat the Apples:

  1. In a large mixing bowl, blend the melted butter with 1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon. Add the apple wedges and stir until they are completely coated in the mixture.

Preheat the Air Fryer:

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3 minutes to reach the ideal temperature for crisping.

Air Fry the Wedges:

  1. Carefully place the apple wedges in the air fryer basket, arranging them in a single layer to promote even cooking. Cook for 6-8 minutes or until they are soft and browned on the edges.

Prepare the Cinnamon Sugar:

  1. While the apples are cooking, mix together the sugar and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon in a small bowl to create a sweet coating.

Coat with Cinnamon Sugar:

  1. Once the apple wedges are cooked, remove them from the air fryer and immediately toss them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until they are fully covered while still warm.

Make the Dipping Sauce:

  1. In a separate bowl, combine the whipped cream and caramel sauce, stirring gently to maintain the fluffy texture.

Chill the Dipping Sauce:

  1. Refrigerate the caramel whipped cream mixture for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the consistency to firm up.

Serve and Enjoy:

  1. Serve the warm apple wedges on a plate with the chilled caramel whipped cream dipping sauce on the side.

Notes

  • Feel free to use any apple variety you prefer, but Gala apples work well for their sweetness and texture.
  • You can add a sprinkle of extra cinnamon on the apple wedges before serving for a bit more spice.
