General Air Fryer Tips

Air Fryers vary in wattage, and therefore in cooking times. This recipe is based using my Cuisinart TOA60. If your air fryer is different, carefully watch food the first time you make it, so that it doesn’t burn.

If it is your first time testing any recipe, watch the food closely so that it does not burn.

Preheating your air fryer will give you the best, crispiest result. Check your brand of air fryer user manual to see if preheating is recommended.

Air fryers preheat in about 3-4 minutes.

Use cooking spray or a fine mist sprayer to spray food prior to cooking, with the exception of baked goods.

Don’t overcrowd foods so air can circulate all around. Flip foods over half way through cooking.
