Why You’ll Love These Fried Cinnamon Apple Rings
There’s something incredibly comforting about the combination of apples and cinnamon. This recipe brings that classic pairing to life in the best way possible. Here’s why you’ll fall in love with these apple rings:

Choosing the Right Apples for the Perfect Texture
Not all apples are created equal when it comes to frying. For the best results, opt for firm, slightly tart apples like Honeycrisp, Granny Smith, or Fuji. Their texture holds up well to frying, ensuring you get that delightful contrast between the crispy coating and tender apple interior.
The Secret to Crispy, Golden Perfection
Avoid soggy apple rings by following these frying tips:
- Make sure the oil is at the right temperature (around 350°F) before adding the apple rings.
- Don’t overcrowd the pan – fry in batches for even cooking.
- Drain the rings on a paper towel after frying to remove excess oil.
Serving Ideas: Elevate Your Dessert Game
These apple rings are fantastic on their own, but you can take them to the next level with a few fun toppings. Drizzle them with honey, maple syrup, or caramel sauce for an extra sweet kick. A dusting of powdered sugar or a scoop of vanilla ice cream makes them irresistible.
Storage and Reheating Tips
If you have leftovers (though it’s hard to resist eating them all at once), store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one day. For a longer shelf life, refrigerate them for up to three days. To bring back the crispiness, reheat them in an air fryer or oven at 350°F for a few minutes.
