Air Fried Pickles FAQ

Do I need to dry off my pickles before air frying them?

No, there is no need to dry off your pickles before coating them in batter. The batter will stick just fine to your pickles and the pickles juice adds that extra delicious flavor.

What sauce goes with pickles?

We love a homemade tangy dipping sauce for pickles made of miracle whip, ketchup, tabasco, and spices.

What kind of pickles do I need?

We used dill pickle chips in this recipe. Dill pickles are the way to go but spears may also be used.

Do I need to air fry my pickles in batches?

Yes. You will need to work in batches for this recipe. You do not want to layer your pickles on top of each other or they won’t get crispy all the way around.

How do you make fried pickles from scratch?

We love this easy air fryer pickles recipe because it uses just 3 ingredients: dill pickle chips, extra crispy Shake ‘N Bake, and olive oil spray.

Start by placing both package of shake ‘n bake in a ziplock bag. Add the pickles (about 1/4 of the jar at a time) and shake until well coated.
Place the pickles in a single layer in the air fryer and spray with olive oil (we recommend this refillable olive oil spray bottle).
Cook until golden brown, about 9 minutes at 400ºF.
Serve and enjoy!
