1-Start by preheating the air fryer to 370°F (188°C) to get that perfect cooking temperature. Then, thoroughly pat the drained pickle coins dry using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to remove excess brine this helps the breading stick and prevents sogginess.

2-Next, whisk the egg in a small bowl and place the panko breadcrumbs in a separate medium bowl. Dip each pickle coin into the whisked egg, then coat it completely with the panko breadcrumbs, and lay the breaded pickles on a plate or parchment paper for easy handling.

3-Lightly drizzle extra-virgin olive oil over the breaded pickles to enhance crispiness. Arrange them in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they’re not overcrowded, and cook in batches if needed. Air fry for 11 to 14 minutes, or until the pickles are golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway if your model requires it.

4-Finally, serve immediately with remoulade sauce or your preferred dipping sauce for a tasty finish. This method keeps the snack light and flavorful, aligning with my blog’s focus on no-heat cooking wonders.
