Air fryer cherry empanadas are a love letter to Mexican cuisine. Filled with cherries, they are prepared in the hot air fryer.

The savory version can easily compete with other Mexican specialties such as classic quesadillas and the sweet version is also on par with the beloved churros. Anyone who tries the fruity empanada can satisfy their culinary wanderlust and easily imagine that they are not in the kitchen at home, but rather sitting under the Yucatán sun on the paradisiacal beach.
