These Airfryer Apple Pie Filo Pastries are a quick and easy dessert that's perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth. The filo pastry turns beautifully crispy in the air fryer, and the spiced apple filling is simply divine. Serve them warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra special treat.

Ingredients: 4 sheets of filo pastry. 2 apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced. 1/4 cup granulated sugar. 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg. 2 tablespoons melted butter. Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream optional, for serving.

Instructions: Get your air fryer ready by heating it up to 350F 175C. The sliced apples, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg should all be mixed together in a bowl. Toss the apples so that the sugar and spices cover them all over. Brush a sheet of filo pastry with melted butter and place it on the work surface. Stack another sheet on top of the first one, and keep going until you have four sheets stacked on top of each other. Fold the stack of paper squares in half to make 4 squares. Put a small amount of the apple mix in the middle of each square of filo paper. Cover the apple mixture with the filo pastry and fold it over to make a triangle or rectangle. Use a little more melted butter to seal the edges. Do the same thing with the rest of the apple mixture and filo sheets. Put the apple pie filo pastries in the air fryer basket that has already been heated in a single layer. They might need to be cooked one at a time. They should be air-fried at 350F 175C for 8 to 10 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Take the pastries out of the air fryer and let them cool down a bit before you serve them. If you want, you can serve it with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. Have fun with your tasty Airfryer Apple Pie Filo Pastries!
