Categories     appetizer

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup canola oil
10 large or colossal green pitted olives
10 large or colossal black pitted olives
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon chili powder
2 beaten eggs
3/4 cup bread crumbs
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 pound manchego cheese, cubed
1/2 pound serrano ham, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Heat canola oil to 350 degrees F. (Drop a very small piece of bread crumb into the oil if it starts to sizzle the oil is hot enough.)
  • Drain the olives.
  • Mix flour, garlic powder and chili powder together and place in a shallow dish. Pour eggs into another dish, and bread crumbs with ground black pepper into a third.
  • Roll the olives in the flour, then roll them in the beaten egg and finally roll them in the bread crumbs. Set on a plate to give the breading a chance to dry and form a crust while the oil heats.
  • When oil is hot, put half the olives into it, being careful not to drop them and splatter hot oil. Fry until golden brown, then remove and drain on paper towels. Be sure to tip the oil out of the center of the olive. Serve on a platter with Manchego cheese cubes and slices of serrano ham.

Air Fryer Fried Oreos image

This carnival treat is easy to replicate at home with your air fryer. We doctored up pancake mix to create a sweet batter that gets light, golden and crisp. The key to a perfect coating is to get the batter's consistency right-so adjust as needed with extra mix.

Categories     dessert

Time 15m

Yield 12 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large egg
1/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup pancake and baking mix, such as Bisquick, plus more if needed
2 tablespoons sugar
Nonstick cooking spray
12 chocolate sandwich cookies, such as Oreos
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting

Steps:

  • Cut 2 sheets of parchment to fit the basket of a 3.5-quart air fryer without hanging over the edges and set aside. Preheat the air fryer to 350 degrees F.
  • Whisk together the egg, milk and vanilla in a medium bowl. Add the pancake mix and sugar and whisk until smooth. The batter should be the consistency of thick cake batter to allow it to coat the cookie and hold its shape. If necessary, adjust the consistency by adding more pancake mix 1 tablespoon at a time.
  • Line the basket of the air fryer with a parchment piece and spray lightly with cooking spray. Dip 6 cookies in the batter, letting the excess drip back into the bowl. Arrange the cookies on the parchment in a single layer without touching. (Make sure to place a cookie on each of the four corners so the parchment doesn't fly up during cooking.) Air fry at 350 degrees F until the battered coating is golden brown and puffed, about 7 minutes. Remove and repeat with the remaining sheet of parchment and cookies.
  • Dust the fried Oreos with confectioners' sugar just before serving.
