Ingredients

• 0.33 cups maple syrup
• 0.25 teaspoons ground dried chipotle pepper
• 1 pinch sea salt
• 1.5 cups butter- and garlic-flavored croutons
• 1 large egg
• 1 , 1 pound
• cooking spray

Instructions

1. 1 Combine maple syrup, chipotle powder, and salt in saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to low to keep warm.
2. 2 Place croutons in the bowl of a mini food processor; pulse until crushed into fine crumbs. Transfer to a shallow bowl. Whisk egg in a separate bowl.
3. 3 Preheat the air fryer to 390 degrees F (200 degrees C).
4. 4 Sprinkle salmon lightly with sea salt. Lightly dip salmon into egg mixture, letting excess drip off. Coat salmon in crouton breading and shake off extra. Set on a plate and mist lightly with cooking spray.
5. 5 Spray basket of the air fryer with cooking spray. Place salmon nuggets inside, working in batches to avoid overcrowding, if necessary.
6. 6 Cook in the preheated air fryer for 3 minutes. Gently turn salmon pieces, spray lightly with oil, and cook until salmon is cooked throughout, 3 to 4 more minutes. Place on a serving platter and drizzle with warm chipotle-maple syrup. Serve immediately.
