Frequently asked questions
What's the conversion rule?
Drop the temperature 25°F and cut the time to about 80%. 400°F/25 min oven → 375°F/20 min air fryer.
Why lower the temperature?
The compact space and fan circulate heat intensely — full oven temp burns the outside before the inside cooks.
Do I still preheat?
2–3 minutes is plenty; most air fryers heat almost instantly compared to ovens.
When should I NOT use the air fryer?
Wet batters (drip through), big roasts (crowding steams instead of crisps), and anything needing precise even baking — cakes belong in the oven.
