How to Reheat Apple Pie in Air Fryer

Ingredients

  • Leftover apple pie (or other fruit pie) - see Note 1
  • Toppings of choice - see Note 2 for some options

Instructions

  • Preheat your air fryer to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (177 degrees Celsius).
  • Place the apple pie in an oven-safe dish or on a makeshift air fryer-safe plate that fits in your air fryer. If you want to use a makeshift plate, see Note 3 for instructions on creating one.
  • Carefully place the dish or makeshift plate with the slice of apple pie into the preheated air fryer.
  • Reheat the pie for 3-5 minutes, or until it is heated through, and the crust is crispy. Keep in mind that the cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the pie and the desired level of crispness.
  • Carefully remove the dish or makeshift plate from the air fryer using oven mitts or tongs, as it will be hot. Let the pie rest for a couple of minutes.
  • Serve the heated apple pie slice and enjoy!

Notes

Note 1: Apple Pie - This air fryer reheating method works best for a slice or two of apple pie if you have a basket-style air fryer. However, if you have a bigger toaster-oven-style air fryer you may also be able to reheat a full pie.
Note 2: Serving Ideas - A warm slice of apple pie is a wonderful treat on its own, but you can take it to the next level using these different serving ideas and toppings:
  • Ice cream: Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top for a contrasting cold and warm flavor
  • Whipped cream: Top the pie with whipped cream for a touch of indulgence
  • A little spice: Sprinkle cinnamon or nutmeg for extra flavor
  • Crushed nuts: Serve the pie with crushed nuts, such as pecans, walnuts, or almonds, for added crunch
  • Caramel sauce: Drizzle caramel sauce on top for a rich, indulgent flavor. You can even try some maple syrup to switch things up.
  • Hot beverage: Pair the pie with a hot beverage, like coffee or my cinnamon hot chocolate, for a classic combination.
 
Note 3: DIY Air Fryer-Safe Disposable Plate - To make the plate, place a piece of parchment paper on top of a slightly bigger piece of aluminum foil. Then fold the edge of the foil over the edge of the parchment paper to create a rim. I usually cut both pieces into a circular shape. But the shape really doesn't matter, as long as the size of the resulting plate is right (see the step-by-step photos in the blog post above).
You could also use a piece of parchment paper or aluminum foil instead of using both for creating a plate. However, by using this makeshift plate, you reduce the risk of aluminum leaching into your food. Plus, the rim around the edges helps contain crumbs and other messes.
