How you can use your air fryer for the holidays
- Roasting turkey portions, ham and whole chicken: An air fryer can be a great alternative to the traditional oven when it comes to roasting turkey legs, ham or chicken for the holidays.
- Making appetizers: Air fryers are perfect for making quick and easy appetizers for holiday parties. From crispy chicken wings to cheesy jalapeño poppers, you can make a wide variety of appetizers in an air fryer.
- Baking desserts: Believe it or not, you can even bake desserts in an air fryer! From apple crisp to brownies, an air fryer can be a great way to make small batches of dessert for the holidays.
- Cooking side dishes: Side dishes like roasted vegetables or even frozen Brussels sprouts can be made in an air fryer. This is a great way to free up oven space for other dishes.
- Reheating leftovers: After the holidays are over, an air fryer can be a great way to reheat leftovers. The hot air will help keep the food crispy and delicious, just like it was when it was first cooked.
