The Way To Convert Oven Cooking Times For The Air Fryer
BY SIMONE GERBER
Air fryers are compact, easy to use, and can bake or roast a wide variety of foods, but since they work differently than traditional ovens, you need to adjust the cooking times.
Air fryers cook hotter and faster than a standard oven, so plan on cooking food at a lower temperature and for a shorter time than you would in your oven.
The general rule of thumb is to reduce the heat setting by about 25 degrees Fahrenheit and reduce the cooking time by about 20%, but every air fryer is slightly different.
These guidelines are a good starting point, but you may need to make alterations that suit your fryer, and check on your food a few times while troubleshooting to avoid burning it.
