Why it works

Air fryers are basically small convection ovens. The fan and tight space mean food cooks faster and at a lower temp than a regular oven. Always check 5 minutes early the first time you make a recipe.

FAQ

Why a lower temperature?+

Air fryers move hot air aggressively, which transfers heat to food faster than a still oven. A lower temp prevents the outside from burning before the inside cooks.

Does this work for everything?+

Most things. Wet batters, soups, and very large roasts don't air-fry well. Stick to small-to-medium items where browning matters.
