Method
 

Steps
  1. Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, slice your chosen apples and toss them with granulated sugar, lemon juice, and ground cinnamon until well coated.
  3. Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  4. Spread the apple mixture evenly across the air fryer basket.
  5. In another bowl, combine all-purpose flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, and salt. Then drizzle in melted unsalted butter and mix until crumbly.
  6. Generously sprinkle the crumble topping over the layer of apples in the air fryer.
  7. Cook for 20-25 minutes until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender.
  8. Carefully remove and let cool slightly before serving warm.
