Air fryers aren't terribly new, but they are definitely becoming more trendy in the cooking and social media worlds. By definition, an air fryer is, "a kitchen appliance that cooks by circulating hot air around the food using the convection mechanism. A mechanical fan circulates the hot air around the food at high speed, cooking the food and producing a crispy layer."

WOULD LIKE THE MAKE AND MODEL OF YOUR AIR FRYER ALSO. YOUR RECIPES LOOK DELICIOUS. WOULD LIKE THE CALORIE COUNT ALSO. THANKS JO
Sarah Kesseli says
HI Joseph, not all of these recipes belong to us. As you will see, we have credited many sites and linked back to their recipes. Due to this, the brand of air fryer will vary and we do not have calorie information. Any brand of air fryer would work and you can very easily calculate the calories in your nutrition app such as my fitness pal.
