Ingredients
Wet Ingredients
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 egg
Dry Ingredients
- 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
- 1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic or garlic powder
- Salt, to taste
Main Ingredient
- 1 14.5 ounce can quartered artichoke hearts, drained
Other
- Non-stick spray
Instructions
- Prepare the egg wash: Whisk together the egg and milk in a shallow dish, such as a pie dish or small bowl, ensuring they are fully combined to create a smooth wash.
- Mix the bread crumb coating: In another shallow dish, combine the Italian seasoned bread crumbs, panko bread crumbs, and granulated garlic powder. Stir to blend the spices evenly.
- Coat the artichokes: Dip each quartered, drained artichoke heart into the milk and egg wash, turning to coat thoroughly on all sides.
- Dredge in bread crumbs: Transfer the wet artichokes to the bread crumb mixture. Press gently but firmly to ensure the coating sticks completely.
- Air fry: Place the coated artichoke hearts carefully in a single layer inside the air fryer basket. Lightly spray the tops with non-stick spray. Set the air fryer to 375°F and cook for 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through at 5 minutes to promote even cooking and crispiness.
- Season and serve: Once golden and crispy, remove from the air fryer, season with salt to taste, and serve immediately while hot.
Notes
- Ensure artichokes are well-drained before coating to prevent sogginess.
- Shaking the basket halfway through cooking helps ensure even crispiness on all sides.
- You can serve these with aioli, a garlic mayo, or your favorite dipping sauce for extra flavor.
- For a dairy-free option, substitute milk with a plant-based milk and use an egg replacer if needed.
- Adjust seasoning in bread crumbs to add more herbs or spices according to personal preference.
