Air Fryer Desserts

The air fryer is a versatile kitchen tool. Not only does it allow for quick and easy meals, it is also handy when it comes to whipping up desserts. Learn how you can use it for your sweet recipes.

Its main advantage is that it bakes desserts much faster than a traditional oven, sometimes even taking just half the time to prepare.

The air fryer can bake desserts and keep them warm, but can also:

• dehydrate fruit
• toast nuts
• reheat leftover dessert
• thaw a frozen dessert.

Turnovers, churros, sticky buns, cookies, and let’s not forget apple crisp… This small appliance makes tasty desserts with ease. In just a little time, you’re left with a warm treat. Here are three recipes for you to try:

1. Air Fryer Mini BeaverTail Pastries

What could be more indulgent than these classic treats? These mini BeaverTail pastries are made with vanilla Greek yogurt. They’re baked in the air fryer, which makes them golden and crispy. Easy to make, this recipe will surely brighten up any meal.

2. Air Fryer Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

These delicious cookies are just as easy to make as they are to eat. Plus, they only require seven ingredients and a 15-minute baking time per batch. These treats can also be frozen to enjoy later as a quick dessert after a meal.

3. Air Fryer Apple Crisp

In a traditional oven, an apple crisp’s cooking time can be quite long. In this ramekin version, the crisp only requires 20 minutes in the air fryer. Enjoy this comforting dessert that’s warm, crunchy and inviting.

Convection Cooking

The air fryer is reminiscent of a small convection oven, thanks to a pulsed hot-air cooking system, where hot air circulates around the food that’s placed on an elevated cooking tray, allowing air to flow around it. This ensures uniform results using little to no oil. It’s a small appliance that brings a big revolution to the kitchen!
