Air Fryer Copycat Red Robin Pickle Nickels

Step 1

Pat the pickle slices dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

Step 2

Arrange three shallow bowls—one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Step 3

Dip each pickle slice into the flour, then the egg, and finally the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to coat evenly.

Step 4

Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3 minutes.

Step 5

Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray and place the breaded pickle slices in a single layer, leaving space between them.

Step 6

Spray the tops of the pickles lightly with cooking spray and air fry for 6–8 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.

Step 7

Let the pickle nickels cool slightly before serving them with your favorite dipping sauce.
