These gochujang pork belly bites are sweet and spicy, crispy and crunchy, and absolutely delicious. Whether you finish them with the gochujang sauce in the air fryer, or just dip them in the sauce at the end, they are irresistibly good.
Apple Fritter Pancakes
Apple fritter pancakes make a wonderful breakfast topped with some warmed maple syrup and served with some breakfast meats. You can use any type of apple for this recipe—I used Honeycrisp (Fuji works great, too), but the sweeter the better. If you are using a tart apple, add another tablespoon of sugar.
