Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh strawberries
- Cooking spray (as needed)
- Slice Strawberries: Wash and dry the strawberries, then cut them into even slices to ensure uniform cooking.
- Prepare Air Fryer Basket: Arrange the strawberry slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they are evenly spaced to allow proper air circulation. Lightly spray with a non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- First Air Fry: Air fry the strawberry slices at 180°F for 15 minutes to start the dehydrating process, gently softening the strawberries without fully cooking them.
- Flip and Continue Air Frying: Carefully flip the strawberry slices to ensure even air frying and cook for an additional 25 minutes at 180°F, allowing them to become a little crisp and concentrated in flavor.
- Repeat with Remaining Slices & Serve: If you have more strawberries, repeat the cooking process in batches. Once all are done, serve your air-fried strawberries fresh and enjoy their naturally intensified sweetness.
Notes
- Use ripe but firm strawberries to avoid mushy results after air frying.
- Make sure slices are evenly cut to ensure uniform cooking.
- Adjust air frying time slightly based on your air fryer model and strawberry thickness.
- These air-fried strawberries make a great topping for yogurt, oatmeal, or salads.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
