Questions
How do I convert oven cooking time to an air fryer?
Reduce the temperature by 25°F and cut the cooking time by about 20%. A recipe that bakes at 400°F for 30 minutes becomes 375°F for about 24 minutes in the air fryer. Check a few minutes early and shake or flip halfway.
Why do air fryers cook faster than ovens?
An air fryer is a small convection oven with a powerful fan close to the food. The fast-moving hot air browns and crisps the surface quicker, so you need a lower temperature and less time.
How do I convert frozen food package instructions to the air fryer?
Use the oven temperature from the package, lower it by 25°F, and cut the time by about a quarter. Shake the basket halfway. Frozen fries that bake at 425°F for 20 minutes take about 15 minutes at 400°F.
Can I convert baking recipes to the air fryer?
Yes. Lower the temperature by 25°F, use a pan that fits with space around it, and start checking at about 75% of the original time. Cover the top with foil if it browns before the middle is set.
How do I convert an air fryer recipe to the oven?
Do the reverse: raise the temperature by 25°F and add about 20–25% more time. Use a convection or fan setting if your oven has one.
