🍟 Air Fryer Conversion Rules
Temperature: Reduce oven temperature by 25°F (14°C) for air fryer cooking due to more efficient heat circulation.
Time: Reduce cooking time by 20-25% as air fryers cook faster than conventional ovens.
Preheating: Air fryers heat up quickly - 2-3 minutes is usually sufficient compared to 10-15 minutes for ovens.
Food Placement: Don't overcrowd the basket. Air needs to circulate around food for even cooking.
🎯 Air Fryer Best Practices
- Preheat properly: Always preheat for 2-3 minutes for best results
- Use oil sparingly: A light spray or brush of oil helps with browning
- Shake or flip: Turn food halfway through cooking for even results
- Check doneness: Use a meat thermometer for proteins to ensure safe temperatures
- Don't overcrowd: Cook in batches rather than stuffing the basket
- Clean regularly: Keep your air fryer clean for optimal performance
