Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 2 large green tomatoes sliced into 1/4 inch thick slices
  • 3/4 cup panko crumbs use GF if needed
  • 3/4 cup cornmeal
  • 2 eggs sub maple syrup if egg-free

Instructions
 

  • Wash and dry the green tomatoes. You will want to start with the tomatoes sliced and place them on paper towels. I like to season with salt and pepper.
  • Prepare a bowl of panko or bread crumbs and a bowl of whisked eggs. Dip the sliced tomatoes into the beaten eggs and then into the panko and cornmeal mixture. Be sure to cover both sides.
  • Place tomatoes into the air fryer basket. I would suggest spraying with a spray oil to help the panko crumbs crisp up.
  • Cook until golden on both sides at 400F/204C for 12 minutes.
  • Plate up your crispy tomatoes. I like to serve mine with a dipping sauce too!
