Start by washing and peeling the apples if you prefer them without skin. Slice each apple into wedges, about ½ inch thick, removing the core and seeds.

In a small bowl, combine the cinnamon and sugar. Set aside.

Prepare three bowls for an efficient breading process: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs mixed with half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture.

Dredge each apple slice in flour, dip in beaten eggs, and press into the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring each slice is evenly coated.

Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 3 minutes.

Carefully arrange the breaded apple slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, lightly spraying the tops with cooking spray.

Cook the apple slices at 375°F for approximately 8 to 10 minutes, flipping halfway through until golden-brown.

Once cooked, sprinkle the remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture over the apple fries and serve immediately with caramel sauce or vanilla yogurt.
