Scale

Ingredients

For the Air Fryer Green Tomatoes:

  • 1/2 cup flour, divided
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
  • 4 medium green tomatoes,  sliced 1/4-inch thick

For the Ranch Salsa

  • 1/2 cup salsa
  • 1/4 cup ranch
  • paprika, for garnish

Instructions

For the Air Fryer Green Tomatoes:

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 390°F. Spray your air fryer tray with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. In a shallow bowl or plate, stir together 1/4 cup of the flour, the salt and pepper.
  3. In another small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and egg.
  4. In a third shallow bowl, stir together the remaining 1/4 cup flour and the panko bread crumbs.
  5. Taking 1 tomato slice at a time, dredge them in the flour, then dip into the buttermilk mixture. Dredge the buttermilk coated tomato slices in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring they are completely coated.
  6. Place the breaded tomato slices in a single layer in your air fryer (you will have to work in batches to cook all of them). Spray the tops with nonstick cooking spray. Close the lid and cook for 7 to 8 minutes, then flip them over and continue cooking an additional 3 to 4 minutes, or until golden and crispy. Serve with ranch salsa.

For the Ranch Salsa:

  1. Stir together the salsa and ranch in a small bowl. Add more or less of each to reach desired flavor. Sprinkle with a pinch of paprika, for garnish, if desired.
