Apple Crumble Bites

Method

  1. 1

    Toss diced apples with brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Divide among 6 ramekins.

  2. 2

    Combine oats, flour, brown sugar, and salt. Cut in cold butter until coarse crumbs form.

  3. 3

    Top each cup with crumble, pressing lightly.

  4. 4

    Air fry at 360°F for 12-15 minutes until golden and bubbling. Cool 3-4 minutes before serving.

Pro tip. Use cold butter and don't over-mix — those irregular chunks create the best craggy, crispy bits.

Why the air fryer wins here

  • Ready in 15 minutes. The same dish takes about 26 in a conventional oven, plus preheating.
  • Fast-moving hot air browns the outside before the inside dries out, so you get color without babysitting.
  • Cleanup is a basket, not a sheet pan and a splattered stovetop.

Storing and reheating

Refrigerate perishable leftovers within 2 hours, or within 1 hour above 90°F. Reheat leftovers to 165°F (74°C) throughout, measured with a food thermometer. USDA leftover safety guidance.

Keep leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for 3-5 minutes rather than the microwave so the outside crisps back up. See the reheat guide for exact times by food.
