- Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F. Once preheated, arrange mounds of batter, each measuring about ¼ cup, in the basket. Do not overcrowd the fritters. Cook for 5-6 minutes. Glaze while the fritters are still warm.

Notes
- You can use AP flour or a 1:1 gluten free flour. My favorite gluten free flour is Bob's Red Mill 1:1.
- All air fryers are different, but I typically only preheat mine for 2-3 minutes.
- Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may want to work in batches. Just be sure you're not overcrowding the fritters.
