Why You’ll Love Air Fryer Apples with Greek Yogurt

What makes this recipe shine is the contrast of warm, cinnamon-scented apples and cool, tangy Greek yogurt. The air fryer achieves golden edges on the apples with minimal oil and fuss, making this a lightened-up version of classic baked cinnamon apples. The combination is satisfying, naturally sweet, and packed with protein—perfect for fueling your day or satisfying your sweet tooth.

Prepping Apples for the Air Fryer

Start by choosing crisp, flavorful apples—Honeycrisp or Fuji work beautifully. For even slices (and to shave off precious minutes of prep), reach for the Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper. Uniform slices ensure the apples cook evenly, delivering consistent tenderness and flavor bite after bite.

If you’re prepping ahead or making the recipe in bulk, get out a set of Bamboo Cutting Boards for Kitchen, Set of 3: they’re sturdy, easy to clean, and let you segment prep by ingredient.

Tips for Perfectly Cooked Air Fryer Apples

Line your air fryer with a square of Air Fryer Paper Liners, 125Pcs Parchment Paper, 8IN Square for easy cleanup and to prevent the apples from sticking. Toss the apple slices with just a little olive oil or a spritz from your YARRAMATE 16oz/470ml Oil Sprayer for Cooking, Black—this helps them caramelize without becoming greasy.

Next, set your COSORI Air Fryer 9-in-1, Compact & Large 6-Qt, Grey to 375°F. Arrange the apples in a single layer and air fry for 10-12 minutes, shaking halfway, until beautifully browned and fragrant.

Serving Your Air Fryer Apples with Greek Yogurt

Serve your warm, spiced apples over a generous dollop of creamy Greek yogurt. For a picture-perfect presentation—great for meal prep or mid-week snacks—layer the apples and yogurt in the Bentgo Salad Container – 54 oz Bowl, Khaki Green. Top with a drizzle of honey, a sprinkle of granola, or chopped nuts for satisfying crunch.

For an extra pop of flavor, add a dash of nutmeg or cardamom to the apples before air frying. This recipe is versatile, letting you play with your favorite spices and toppings.
