Description

Enjoy crispy, crunchy, and addictive Air Fryer Fried Pickles, a fun and easy appetizer perfect for parties or snacking. These golden-brown dill pickle coins feature a light panko breadcrumb coating and are perfectly cooked in the air fryer for a healthier alternative to traditional frying. Serve them with remoulade sauce or chipotle-based dips for an extra burst of flavor.

Ingredients

Pickles

  • 1 (16-ounce) jar dill pickle coins, drained
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling

Dipping Sauce

  • Remoulade sauce, for dipping

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 370°F to get it ready for cooking. This ensures even air circulation and proper crisping of the pickles.
  2. Dry the Pickles: Use a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to thoroughly pat the dill pickle coins dry. Removing excess moisture is key to achieving maximum crispiness.
  3. Prepare Breading Station: In a small bowl, whisk the egg until smooth. In a separate medium bowl, place the panko breadcrumbs. These will create the crispy coating.
  4. Coat the Pickles: Dip each dried pickle coin first into the whisked egg, then coat it evenly with the panko breadcrumbs. Place coated pickles on a plate.
  5. Drizzle Olive Oil: Lightly drizzle extra-virgin olive oil over the breaded pickles. This helps them crisp up beautifully in the air fryer without deep frying.
  6. Arrange in Air Fryer: Place the pickles in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving space between each to allow air circulation. Avoid overcrowding, working in batches if needed.
  7. Air Fry: Cook the pickles for 11 to 14 minutes or until they are crisp and golden brown. Cooking time may vary based on your air fryer model, so keep an eye on them towards the end.
  8. Serve Immediately: Remove the fried pickles from the air fryer and serve warm with remoulade sauce or your preferred dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Make sure to dry the pickles thoroughly to avoid soggy coating.
  • Work in batches to prevent overcrowding in the air fryer basket for even cooking.
  • Drizzling olive oil is essential for achieving a golden, crispy crust without deep frying.
  • Adjust cooking time as needed depending on the air fryer brand and size.
  • Try serving with chipotle sauce or chipotle ranch for a spicy twist.
