Ingredients
- 1 32-ounce jar of sliced dill pickles, drained
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- Ranch dressing, optional, for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F for 5 minutes.
- In the meantime, drain the pickles on a plate lined with a paper towel, to soak up the excess juice.
- Whisk the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, salt, paprika, and cayenne powder together in a shallow bowl.
- Toss 15 pickle slices in the flour mixture at a time, and then shake off the excess.
- Spray your air fryer basket with nonstick cooking spray, and layer the pickles into the basket.
- Space them evenly so the air can circulate.
- Spray the tops of the pickles with more cooking spray, and air-fry for 5 minutes.
- Flip the pickles over, spray them with cooking spray again, and air-fry for 4 – 5 more minutes, or until golden brown.
- Repeat this process with the remaining pickles.
- Serve immediately, with ranch if desired.
Serving Suggestions
- Barbecue Dishes
- Wings
- Sloppy Joes
Tips and Tricks
- Use a non-aerosol, 100% olive oil nonstick spray when coating the basket and pickles. Aerosol sprays can damage the finish of your air fryer over time.
- It’s important to drain the pickles well before coating them in the flour mixture. Excess moisture can cause the pickles to become soggy rather than crispy.
- For a slightly different flavor, try tossing the pickles in a small amount of mustard before coating them in the flour mixture. This can add a delicious tang and depth of flavor.
