Fried Artichoke Hearts {Air Fryer Artichoke Hearts}

Step 1

Drain the artichoke hearts and squeeze any additional water out of them.

Step 2

In one bowl, combine bread crumbs, panko, Italian seasoning, parmesan cheese, and salt and mix well. Mix flour and baking powder in another bowl. Mix an egg in a third bowl. Set up an empty plate.

Step 3

It easiest to work in batches of 2-With your left hand, dredge three artichoke hearts through the flour and shake the excess off.

Step 4

With your left hand, drop them into the egg mixture, stirring to coat.

Step 5

Use your right hand and drop them into the breadcrumb bowl. Place your finished artichokes onto the plate.

Step 6

Preheat your air fryer to 390 degrees F.

Step 7

I recommend spraying the artichoke hearts with olive oil spray while they're still on the plate. Really coat them.

Step 8

Spray the basket of the air fryer with olive oil and gently place the artichoke hearts in the basket. Don't overcrowd the basket.

Step 9

Cook for 5 minutes at 390 degrees F. Flip (easiest to use the tines of a fork). Spray the tops with additional olive oil spray if they need it.

Step 10

Cook for an additional 3 minutes and then serve with your favorite dipping sauce.

Place parchment on a rimmed baking sheet, and place a baking rack on the sheet. Spray the rack liberally with olive oil.
