Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat your air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a medium bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and cubed cold butter. Use your fingertips or a pastry blender to work the butter into the flour and sugar until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Stir in the cinnamon, baking powder, and nutmeg, ensuring even distribution throughout the crumble mixture. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Lightly spray two 4 1/2-inch ramekins with nonstick cooking spray. This will prevent the crumble from sticking and ensure easy removal. (1 minute)

05

Step

Divide the apple mixture evenly between the prepared ramekins, creating a base layer of apples. (3 minutes)

06

Step

Top the apples with the crumble mixture, mounding it generously. Ensure that the apples are well covered for a perfect crumble topping. (3 minutes)

07

Step

Cover the ramekins with large pieces of foil, tucking the edges underneath to secure them. This prevents the topping from burning during the initial cooking phase. (2 minutes)

08

Step

Air fry for 16 to 20 minutes, or until the apples are tender when pierced with a fork. Carefully remove the foil. (16-20 minutes)

09

Step

Continue air frying for an additional 2 to 4 minutes, or until the crumble topping is golden brown and crispy. Watch closely to prevent burning. (2-4 minutes)

10

Step

Let the crumbles cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm, perhaps with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra touch of indulgence. (5 minutes)

For a richer flavor, consider using brown sugar instead of white sugar in the crumble topping.
If you prefer a nuttier crumble, add 1/4 cup of chopped pecans or walnuts to the mixture.
Feel free to experiment with different apple varieties to find your favorite flavor combination.
Ensure that the air fryer basket is not overcrowded to allow for even cooking and proper air circulation.

    I was skeptical about air frying a crumble, but it turned out perfectly! The apples were tender, and the topping was crisp.

    Be careful not to overcook it; otherwise, the apples can become mushy.
