    Oh and did I mention they are vegan? That's right - you make these vegan air fryer pickles without egg and without milk. Accidentally vegan recipes are the BEST.

    • drain the juice from the pickle slices, but do NOT pat them dry - you need some of the moisture on the slices to keep the flour on
    • shake the slices together with the seasoned flour
    • Air Fry at 400 F until crispy!

    Course: Appetizer
    Cuisine: American
    Keyword: Air Fryer, pickles
    Prep Time: 5 minutes
    Cook Time: 10 minutes
    Total Time: 15 minutes
    Servings: 8 people

    Ingredients

    • 1 cup All Purpose Flour
    • 1 Tablespoon Cajun Seasoning
    • 1 Tablespoon Garlic Powder
    • ½ teaspoon Cayenne Pepper Ground Red Pepper
    • 2 cups Pickle slices drained Hamburger Slices work best
    • Olive Oil Spray

    Equipment

    • Air Fryer

    Instructions

    • Put all of the ingredients except for the pickles in a large baggie and shake to make sure they are thoroughly combined.
    • Add all of the drained hamburger sliced pickles to the bag and shake to coat them on all sides.
      The pickles should be drained of their juice but NOT patted dry. The juice helps the breading stick.
    • Place the pickles in a single layer in the air fryer, coat thoroughly with olive oil spray, and air fry at 400 F for 5 minutes. Flip, spray with olive oil again, then cook for an additional 4 minutes.

    Notes

    Cook in batches to make sure you don't over crowd the fryer, as this will prevent them from cooking.
