What is an air fryer and how does it work?<\/h3>\n

Simply put, it’s deep frying without the oil. While a deep fryer flash heats food\u00a0in a bath of super hot oil, an air fryer uses a convection fan to surround the food with hot air instead of oil.\u00a0The air bounces off of the bottom of the air fryer and back up through the food, cooking it all over to create that crisping effect in just minutes.\u00a0 Not only are you getting that coveted taste and texture without the part that makes it unhealthy, but you’re getting it in half the time.<\/p>\n

But it’s not just fried foods, air fryers can also grill, roast and even bake, giving you even more options in the kitchen. An air fryer can be used for a wide range of things like grilling a steak or even baking a pizza. It’s like having a combo oven and deep fryer, except it fits on your counter and doesn’t require frozen food to be thawed before cooking. Most fryers are also made of non-stick material and are dishwasher safe which helps make for a quick and easy clean up.<\/p>\n
