- beat the eggs in another bowl
- and in the third bowl add your seasoned breadcrumbs
- dip a pickle chip in the flour, then in the eggs, then in the bread crumbs, and set on the prepared baking sheet
- repeat with enough pickle chips to fill the basket or tray of the air fryer
- spritz with cooking oil

- air fry the remaining pickles in batches as directed
- serve with your favorite dip or dressing
What to Dip Your Fried Pickles in
You CAN use anything you like for dipping. We prefer a good homemade ranch dressing. But lately, I’ve been making these two ranch dressings variations quite frequently. And they pair perfectly with fried pickles.

If you’re cooking for a crowd you might need to borrow or buy another air fryer to get an entire party of appetizers out for your friends. I prefer a basket style Air Fryer such as a Cosori 5.8 Max XL Basket Style Air Fryer OR the Dual Basket in this Vortex is a nice air fryer too.
