Ingredients

Scale

1 cup large dill pickle slices
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cornmeal (finely ground)
2 large eggs
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
2 teaspoons dill seasoning
Cooking spray (olive oil preferred)

Instructions

Pat pickle slices dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Set up three bowls: one with flour mixed with salt and pepper, another with whisked eggs, and the third with panko breadcrumbs mixed with cornmeal and dill seasoning.
Dip each pickle slice into the flour mixture, then the egg wash, and finally coat generously with the panko mixture.
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
Place coated pickles in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Spray lightly with cooking spray and cook for 8-10 minutes until they are golden brown and crispy.
Serve immediately with ranch dressing or spicy mayo for dipping.
