Air-Fryer Pork Chops

Preheat the air fryer to 375°. In a shallow bowl, stir together the almond flour, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Creole seasoning and paprika. Coat the pork chops all over with the flour mixture, and shake off the excess. Editor’s Tip: Don't pat your pork chops dry before using them in this step. The moisture will help the seasonings and flour adhere to the meat. Also, it’s important to preheat your air fryer because, just like a hot oven, using the proper cooking temperature prevents the meat from overcooking or becoming tough.

Working in batches as needed, place chops in a single layer on a greased tray in the air-fryer basket. Spritz the chops with cooking spray. Cook the pork chops until they’re golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes, or until a thermometer reads 145°, turning the chops and spritzing with additional cooking spray halfway through cook time. Remove the pork chops, and keep warm while repeating with the remaining chops. Editor’s Tip: To keep the pork chops from drying out, check the meat's internal temperature at 12 minutes, then add more cook time as needed. If it’s close to 145°, you may only need another minute or two.
