What to Serve Fried Pickles With

Air fried pickles are incredible on their own, but every now and then you’re going to want to dunk them into something amazing. Here are a few ideas.

Tips and Variations for Air Fryer Fried Pickles

Pat them dry: You want your pickles to be as dry as possible. This will help them keep their crispy outsides as well as allow the incredible coating to stick. Know Your Air Fryer: Every air fryer is a little different, so it’s important to know how yours cooks. If you’re still getting familiar with how your air fryer bakes, check your pickles often to make sure they don’t burn or if you need to add time. Don’t over crowd: Make sure your pickles don’t overlap. If they do they’ll be soggy in those spots. You want the air fryer to be able to circulate all around the air fryer pickles. Cook them in batches if you need to. Use Spears: You can totally use dill pickle spears with this air fryer recipe. You will just need to add on a few more minutes to the cook time. Tongs:  I like to use tongs to dip the pickles to keep my fingers clean. Same Size: Whether you use dill pickle chips or spears try to keep them the same size in the basket. The fried pickles will be able to cook evenly that way.

Storing Air Fried Pickles

Air fryer fried pickles are best eaten immediately from the air fryer. They will go soggy when stored. That being said leftovers are always a wonderful thing.

Store: Keep air fryer pickles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat:  To get the maximum crispiness out of your leftover air fried pickles, cook them in the air fryer at 400 for 2-3 minutes. You can also reheat them in the oven, but it will take longer.
