For the Creamy Ketchup Dip:**
- 1 Cup Unsweetened Plain Non-Dairy Yogurt or Vegan/Soy-Free Mayo
- 1/4 Cup Ketchup (or Homemadeย or Nightshade-Free)
Instructions
- Drain the pickle slices between paper towels to drain off as much excess juice as possible.
- In a small bowl, mix together the dijon mustard and non-dairy milk.
- In another bowl or plate, mix together the breadcrumbs, parsley, onion powder, garlic powder, and pepper.
- Prepare to bread your pickles by placing the two bowls, drained pickles, and air fryer basket in an assembly line.
- Take pickle slice and dip it in the dijon milk mixture, toss in the breadcrumbs, and then place it in the air fryer basket. Repeat until your air fryer basket in full (but not overcrowded).
- Air fry the pickles at 400ยฐF for about 7 minutes, flip them, air fry again for another 3-5 minutes until the pickle chips are crisp and golden brown. Repeat this cooking process until you've completed all the pickle chips you have.
- To make the dipping sauce, mix together the yogurt (if you want the sauce more dripping and lighter)/mayo (thicker and more classic) and ketchup until combined.
