# Detailed Cooking Steps:
01 -
Set your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) and let it heat.
02 -
Slice the peeled apples into thin fry-like pieces, around 1/4 inch wide.
03 -
Add the sliced apples in a bowl and mix them with lemon juice so they don’t turn brown.
04 -
Combine salt, sugar, cinnamon, and flour in a different bowl.
05 -
Drop a few apple slices into your flour mix and toss gently so they’re covered well.
06 -
Shake off any leftover flour, then set the coated apples on a plate.
07 -
Spray the fryer tray lightly with oil or cooking spray so nothing sticks.
08 -
Lay out the apple slices in one even layer inside the air fryer tray. Fry them for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway, until they’re golden and crisp. Watch closely if the slices get cooked faster based on thickness.
09 -
Blend the caramel sauce, vanilla, cream cheese, and powdered sugar in a bowl till it’s smooth and creamy.
10 -
Once cooked, move the fries to a plate and serve them warm with the caramel dip on the side.
