- 1 (32 oz) jar sliced dill pickles, drained
Seasoned Flour Mixture:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
For Serving:
- Ranch dressing, optional, for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 400°F for 5 minutes.
- Drain Pickles: Place drained pickle slices on a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess moisture.
- Prepare Flour Mixture: In a shallow bowl, combine flour, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, paprika, and cayenne pepper.
- Coat Pickles: Toss pickle slices in the flour mixture, shaking off excess.
- Air Fry Pickles: Spray air fryer basket with nonstick spray. Arrange coated pickles in a single layer, spray tops, and air-fry for 5 minutes. Flip, respray, and air-fry for an additional 4-5 minutes until golden.
- Serve: Serve hot with optional ranch dressing for dipping.
Notes
- Avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket for crispy results.
- Use olive oil nonstick spray for browning.
- Ensure pickles are well-drained before coating to prevent sogginess.
- For added flavor, try marinating pickles in mustard before breading.
- Best served fresh; store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in air fryer or oven at 350°F for 5 minutes until crispy.
