Air Fryer Recipes

I’ve had some excellent dried pineapple and I had some very terrible freeze dried pineapple as a snack

But yeah was not disagreeing on the AF as a dryer mine says WARM then next mark is 250 •F

 

@Kilo Charlie

I bought a bag of dried pineapple from Costco about 2 years ago and it lasted all of about 2 hours because everyone loved it. The price has jumped up A LOT so I figured I'd give it a try myself with a $3 pineapple.

My air fryer is set to 130.

 

I wasn't aware they went that low.. but totally in for the results! How did you cut it up? Slices? Chunks?

 

My air fryer also has a dehydrate option so that might be why a dedicated air fryer maybe doesn't go that low.

They are cut into about 1/4" (maybe more like 3/8") slices.

I maybe should have chunked them but I have to have something to change for next time!

 

I just checked mine.. it goes down to 180F .. hut I have a dehydrator so it's no worries for me.

Still in for the results!

 

I've never dehydrated anything so this should be interesting.

 

I've dehydrated so many things.. the only real failure I had was dehydrating bacon in an attempt to make bacon salt.

Fruits and vegetables are the most common for me especially when I was making my own rubs and wanted things like Jalapeño Powder or Habanero Powder etc.

 

I have a dehydrator but I only use it for drying wet polished spent brass

SO........these posts inspired me..........stuck a thermocouple in my AF. Ran for awhile holds right at 134°F on the "LOW" setting. I had no idea. Problem is, it has only a 60 minute on timer...........PITA to use to actually dry much~

 

Interesting use, What air fryer?

 

Cuisinart

 

Id make a holder with flat piece of metal with a slot to stop dial switch from turning or drill a hole at the marker of the knob, and use a piece of coat hanger to stop it from turning. Wedge it between the gap above the door. If that makes sense...

 

Might be easier to just buy a dehydrator for like $25 and not break your air fryer

 

Crow bar baby!!

 

The recipe I'm using said 130 for 5 hours but they were nowhere near done. I doubt it will help much but I put them back in for another 2 hours.

Another recipe said 120 for 12 hours which is looking like that's probably more in line with what it will need.

 

Or painters tape

 

Yeah my brass dryer was from a garage sale I think a couple bucks. Unused!

 

Yea.. no where near... it's usually 12 to 24 hours for things to dry

 

Seven hours didn't do it. I put them back in for another 4.

Maybe it is cheaper to just bite the bullet and buy the bag from Costco.

 

@SRH what do you put on the plantains??

 

I coat them in olive oil. After cooked…. real butter (sometimes I leave butter off) honey and cinnamon. Lmk what you think.
