WHAT AIR FRYER SHOULD I BUY?
I use the Cosori Premium 5.8 Quart Air Fryer, which I received for review purposes and it’s so easy to use. My favorite feature is how fast it will cook and I’m not waiting on the oven to preheat.
It doesn’t heat up the kitchen and it’s super easy to clean.
ThisAccessories Kit includes cake pan, pizza pan, baking racks, skewers, silicone mat, silicone egg bites mold – all super handy.
I have this Oil Sprayer to use with the air fryer, it works better than the air pump type of mister but might use a bit more oil.
One of the easiest things I've ever made. My family went totally crazy for these cinnamon sugar coated apple bites. They are made with canned biscuit dough and are so irresistible. My mom's famous apple cake recipe that is beyond delicious. I make this cake all year round and it's always a huge hit. A classic cobbler filled with delicious apples and it tastes just like the one your grandmother would make. We love it topped with vanilla ice cream. Great for any occasion. These no bake cheesecakes in jars are way easier than they look. A simple caramel cheesecake filling layered with a simple homemade apple pie filling. An impressive and delicious dessert for holidays and celebrations. A quick and easy dessert that is irresistible! Perfect for any night of the week and delicious enough for special occasions.
