- 1 cup Greek Yogurt
- 1 cup White Whole Wheat Flour
- 1 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 tsp Cinnamon

Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, cardamom, and salt.
- Next, add the Greek Yogurt and maple syrup. Using a spatula, stir together to combine.
- Fold in the diced apples to form a thick fritter dough.
- Preheat your air fryer to 350°F and lightly spray the basket with oil to prevent sticking.
- Scoop about ¼ cup mounds of batter into the air fryer basket (about 5–6 at a time, depending on the size of your air fryer).
