Ingredients
  

  • Here’s a straightforward list of what you need to get started:
  • 1 pre-made pie crust you can also make your own
  • 2 cups of fruit filling apple, cherry, or blueberry
  • ½ cup sugar adjust based on the sweetness of the fruit
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch helps thicken the filling
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract optional
  • 1 tablespoon butter for a nice golden top
  • Substitutions:
  • For a gluten-free option use a gluten-free pie crust.
  • Use honey or agave syrup instead of sugar for a healthier twist.
  • If you don't have cornstarch you can use flour, but it may result in a slightly different texture.

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine your chosen fruit filling with sugar, cornstarch, and vanilla extract. Stir until the fruit is well-coated, and let it sit for about 5 minutes.
  2. Assemble the Pie: Roll out your pre-made crust (if needed) and lay it into your pie dish. Pour the filling into the crust and spread it evenly.
  3. Top It Off: If desired, cover the pie with another layer of dough (cut slits for steam to escape) or simply fold the edges for a rustic look. Dot the top with butter.
  4. Air Fry: Place the pie in the air fryer basket and set the temperature to 340°F (170°C) for 20 minutes. Check halfway through. If it's browning too quickly, cover it loosely with aluminum foil.
  5. Cool and Serve: Once cooked, carefully remove the pie from the air fryer and let it cool for a few minutes. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.
