3. Batch Control: Avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket to allow proper air circulation for even cooking.
4. Size Matters: Keep your apple pieces small for better filling distribution and easier sealing of the bombs.
5. Quick Coating: Roll the bombs in the sugar mixture while still warm for better coating adhesion.
