Whether your air fryer is in heavy rotation or you’re a novice, you’ll love these super easy recipes!
The whole point of an air fryer is ease. Well, that and — for some folks — the ability to make healthier meals. But most people aren’t splurging on a tool like this unless it makes cooking easier and quicker. That’s why we’ve rounded up some of our favorite easy air fryer recipes to make planning and cooking meals even simpler!
When I first heard the term “air fryer” I mistakenly assumed it would be a tool meant exclusively to replace a deep fryer. I definitely didn’t expect you’d be able to make things like a perfectly cooked salmon, pizza rolls, or cupcakes in it.
They’re shockingly straightforward to use, but still, I admit to feeling a little intimidated. Or at least, more comfortable with the conventional cooking methods I’d grown used to relying on for more than a decade of actually cooking legitimate meals.
We received an air fryer as a second-hand gift from a family member who never used hers. It sat on our countertop for far longer than I’d like to admit, gathering dust and buried under mail and other random items in search of a home.
When I finally took out the instruction manual and fired it up, I remember thinking, “Wait, that’s it? That’s all I have to do?” Sure, you could get fancy with it, but you can also often just… put in some chicken and push the chicken button.
Still, you can do more than just tossing single ingredients in or limiting yourself to the presets on your machine, of course. Try any of these air fryer recipes today for the perfect side, entree, or dessert!
