Air Fryer Food FAQs
Aluminum foil is completely safe to use in your air fryer. Anything you can put into your oven, you can use in your air fryer, whether that’s aluminum foil or a baking dish.
The air fryer is suitable for cooking just about anything, even hard boiled eggs, but it really shines with foods that are usually fried in oil. As you can use little oil cooking with it, it creates more wholesome, lighter versions of traditionally fried foods, like french fries. Try using the air fryer instead of deep frying to make homemade french fries, fried mushrooms, or anything with a simple egg, flour, and breadcrumbs breading.
