Notes

    • Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket. Cook in a single layer to allow airflow around the food.
    • Cook time may vary depending on your specific air fryer model, as all brands have their differences.
    • Use an oil sprayer with your preferred oil. Avoid using a pressurized cooking spray with additives as it can damage the air fryer surface.
    • Recipe time and temperature is based on a preheated air fryer. If cooking in multiple batches, be sure to check on the remaining batches early, as they might cook more quickly. 
    • Remember to set your timer if your air fryer doesn't remind you to shake halfway through cooking!
