Air Fryer Tools
You’re going to need an air fryer. I have thisCosoriand love it. Many people prefer an oven-style air fryer andthis Ninja modelis a popular option.
It is not recommended that you use a commercial nonstick cooking spray on your air fryer. It can create a hard-to-clean coating on the basket or racks and eventually lead to damage.
Instead, I usea Mistoto lightly spray veggies with olive oil to get the perfect crisp on your food. I recommend spraying the vegetables on a plate or in a bowl prior to adding them to the air fryer.
Air Fryer parchment
Parchment and silicone liners are a great way to prevent food from sticking to your air fryer, and many of them also help to keep your basket/trays clean. Popular options are:
- Silicone liners(these are reusable and dishwasher safe)
- Air fryer safe parchment
- Theseair fryer parchment liner traysare practically mess-free.
- You can also use foil in your air fryer if needed.
It is recommended that if using air fryer parchment, that you do not preheat the air fryer with the parchment in there. And always place food on top of the parchment while using it.
The powerful fan of air fryers can suck the parchment up to the top of the air fryer, causing it to come into contact with the heating coils.
