Step 1

Drain pickles well and lay them on a few layers of paper towels, drying them well.

Step 2

Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F.

Step 3

In a wide, shallow bowl, place Panko crumbs. In a second bowl, whisk egg with water. In a third bowl, whisk together the flour, garlic powder, paprika, and dill.

Step 4

Dredge each pickle through the flour mixture, dip them in the egg, then press them into the Panko to coat.

Step 5

Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray, then carefully place a single layer of pickles in the basket. Work in batches as necessary. Lightly spray the tops of the pickles with cooking spray, then cook for 4 minutes. Flip the pickles and cook them for an additional 2-4 minutes, until they’re browned and crispy.

Step 6

Allow to cool slightly before serving with your favorite dipping sauce.
