For extra flavor, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the cornmeal mixture for a subtle kick. If you don't have buttermilk, you can make a quick substitute by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar to 1/2 cup of milk. Ensure the tomatoes are in a single layer in the air fryer basket to allow for even cooking and maximum crispness. Overcrowding will result in soggy tomatoes. Serve immediately for the best taste and texture. These are delicious with ranch dressing, sriracha mayo, or a homemade remoulade sauce.
