Tips for air frying

  • Every air fryer make and model cooks a little different. You might need to tweak the cooking time by a few minutes depending on your specific air fryer.
  • In general, to convert baking time to an air fryer, reduce the temperature by 25°F and reduce the cooking time by 20%.
  • It's not necessary to preheat your air fryer before cooking. If you do, it could change the cook time of the recipe. Only preheat if the recipe says so.
  • Be sure not to over-crowd the air fryer basket. Work in batches, if needed!
  • For the hot air to really work it's magic, arrange food in a single layer.
  • Shake the basket as the food cooks. This will help redistribute the ingredients and help them to brown and crisp more evenly.
