Orange pepper wings from the Airfryer! 🍊
The air fryer is essentially a compact convection oven so anything that fits in the oven can be cooked in it. But it has two big advantages: a small size that fits on a countertop and a faster cooking time. An air fryer can cook almost anything and it can cook in small batches and quickly. Cooking becomes easier faster and cleaner. You can even try crazy things with it like making popcorn (although the corn can stick and burn in the air fryer). So read on and try cooking these dishes: you might just find a new favorite.
Macaroni and cheese is one of those simple inexpensive dishes that is easy to cook and filling. You can make it with multiple steps like this macaroni and cheese recipe from Homeroom. But you can also take the easy route and cook it in an air fryer.
In the air fryer version you don’t need to boil the macaroni first. The total cooking time is also much shorter — about 20 minutes. Get your dry pasta cheese water heavy cream salt and spices ready. Choose a pan that will fit in your air fryer (a cake pan will work too). Combine everything in a pan and stir. Then place in your air fryer and cook at 360 F for about 18-20 minutes.
