Ingredients

  • 2-4 Cubed Steaks or steaks that have been tenderized
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 large egg
  • Splash of hot sauce
  • 20 saltine crackers crushed
  • 1 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 tablespoon Creole Seasoning
  • Salt and Pepper
  • Oil Spritzer and Canola Oil

Instructions

  • Season your steaks with salt and pepper and set aside.
  • Crush your crackers and place on a plate and then add flour and Creole seasoning. Mix it up and then set aside.
  • In a bowl add your buttermilk, 1 egg, and splash of hot sauce. Mix it up.
  • Now you want to dredge your steak in the flour mixture, followed by egg mixture. Let excess drip off, then put back in flour mixture.
  • Place battered steaks on air fryer rack, and spritz with cooking oil.
  • Turn to 400 degrees and cook for 8 minutes.
  • Remove and flip over, and spritz the other side with oil.
  • Continue cooking and flipping until your steaks are fully cooked.
  • Depending on the thickness of your steaks will depend on how long they take to cook. Mine took around 25 minutes to fully cook.

Notes

Cooking Time | Make sure to watch your steaks. Every steak will cook differently depending on how thick your steak is. So this is a guide but not a guarantee the steaks will be cooked in that time. Use a meat thermometer if you need to ensure your steaks are fully cooked.
I put gravy all over my country fried steaks, but that is optional.
