How to Cook Frozen Foods in an Air Fryer

1. If you’re using two cooking trays, arrange the food in a single layer on each tray. Place one tray on the top rack and one on the middle rack; if you’re using one tray, place it on the middle rack. If you’re using the basket, do not fill more than ⅔ full.
2. Select the setting and shortest time based on the chart below. If you’re using the cooking trays, switch the trays halfway through cooking (you’ll hear beeps as a reminder).
3. Add time, if needed, for desired doneness. If a specific food is not listed here, set the time for 3–5 minutes less than the package recommends for cooking in a conventional oven.
