🍗 Homemade Air Fryer Chicken Nuggets
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 12–15 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 3–4

🧂 Ingredients:
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cut into bite-sized chunks)

1 cup breadcrumbs (Panko for extra crunch)

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional, for extra flavor)

1 teaspoon paprika

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and black pepper to taste

2 eggs, beaten

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

Cooking spray or a light drizzle of olive oil

🍴 Instructions:
Prepare the Chicken
Cut the chicken breasts into nugget-sized pieces, about 1.5 inches each.

Set Up the Breading Station

Bowl 1: Place the flour

Bowl 2: Beat the eggs

Bowl 3: Mix breadcrumbs, Parmesan (if using), paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper

Bread the Nuggets
Coat each chicken piece in flour → then dip in egg → then coat with the breadcrumb mixture. Press lightly to help the coating stick well.

Preheat the Air Fryer
Preheat your air fryer to 190°C (375°F) for about 3–4 minutes.

Air Fry the Nuggets
Arrange the nuggets in the air fryer basket in a single layer (cook in batches if necessary). Spray lightly with oil.
Cook for 12–15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and fully cooked (internal temp should reach 75°C or 165°F).

Serve & Enjoy
Serve hot with your favorite dips like ketchup, BBQ sauce, honey mustard, or ranch.

👨‍🍳 Tips:
Want it extra crunchy? Double coat the nuggets (dip in egg and breadcrumbs twice).

For a healthier twist, use whole wheat breadcrumbs or almond flour.

Add a pinch of chili powder if you like a spicy kick!

🔥 Spicy Air Fryer Potato Wedges
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 2–3

🥔 Ingredients:
2 large potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet work great)

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon paprika (smoked or sweet)

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)

Optional: pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder for extra heat

Optional garnish: chopped parsley or grated Parmesan

🍴 Instructions:
Wash & Cut the Potatoes
Scrub the potatoes well and cut them into wedges (cut in half, then quarters, then eighths depending on size).

Soak the Wedges (Optional but recommended)
Soak the wedges in cold water for 15–20 minutes to remove excess starch. This helps them get extra crispy.
Drain and pat them dry with a towel.

Season the Potatoes
In a large bowl, toss the wedges with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne (if using). Mix until all wedges are evenly coated.

Preheat the Air Fryer
Preheat your air fryer to 190°C (375°F) for about 3 minutes.

Cook the Wedges
Place the wedges in the air fryer basket in a single layer (cook in batches if needed).
Air fry for 18–20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even crispiness.

Check for Doneness
The wedges should be golden brown and crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. Cook an extra 2–3 minutes if needed based on your air fryer model.

Serve & Enjoy
Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauces — ketchup, garlic mayo, or spicy sriracha dip. Garnish with parsley or Parmesan if desired.

Happy Thanksgiving 🇨🇦 to my fellow Canadians.
Had a whole double bone-in turkey breast, 5lbs, too big for my af. So I cut it in half, froze half.
Mixed soft butter with salt, pepper, chopped garlic, parsley, rosemary and thyme. Put some under skin, rubbed some onto skin.
Placed skin side down in small pan.
Cooked in preheated af, roast option, 350F, 1 hour 20 minutes.
Turned breast side up last 30 minutes.
Succulent and juicy, skin crispy 😋

Tonight I cooked chips in af for the first time. I did it the long way. Superb, crunchy on the outside soft in the middle. Chipped the potato, soaked for 30 mins, dried 100% covered in a spray of oil and sea salt and cooked on 170° C for 15 mins then 200°c for 7 minutes. Perfection🍬 The meal was shredded gammon eggs chips and grilled tomato. Aka ham egg and chips.

YUM - Air Fryer Chicken Skewers doused in garlic parmesan and bang bang sauce! Here’s how I made them:

1) Season your raw chicken bre@st tenders with olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, onion powder and garlic powder.

2) Fold the tenders onto skewers.

3) Air fry for 23-25 minutes @ 400°F.

4) Remove from air fryer and immediately dip in your favorite chicken sauce - I used BWW garlic parmesan for half and Bang Bang sauce for the other half.

Enjoy!

I've realised I forgot to add the baking powder to plain flour! No wonder they were like biscuits 😆

Well, I tried. I love cheese scones but never make them the conventional way as the oven needs heating up and there's a bit of washing up, so tried them in the air fryer. 8oz SR flour, pinch salt, 2oz butter, 1oz grated mature cheddar, 5fl oz milk. Rub in butter to flour and salt to make 'breadcrumb' mixture, add cheese, stir in milk and form into dough. Roll out gently, cut into scone shapes. Cook in AF 180 degrees, 10 mins.
They were more like biscuits but hubby enjoyed them 😊

Air Fryer Homemade Donuts
Ingredients:
For the donuts:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
For the glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar
2-3 tablespoons milk
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
For the topping (optional):
Sprinkles, chopped nuts, shredded coconut, or your choice of toppings
Instructions:
Prepare the dough:In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.
Shape the donuts:Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/2 inch thickness.
Use a donut cutter or two differently sized round cookie cutters (one larger and one smaller) to cut out donut shapes. Alternatively, you can shape them by hand if you don't have a cutter.
Preheat the air fryer:Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (180°C).
Air fry the donuts:Lightly grease the air fryer basket or use parchment paper or silicone mats to prevent sticking.
Place the donuts in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving some space between them.
Air fry at 350°F (180°C) for about 4-6 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Cooking times may vary depending on your air fryer, so keep an eye on them.
Prepare the glaze:While the donuts are cooking, make the glaze by mixing powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a bowl until smooth. Adjust the milk or sugar as needed to achieve your desired glaze consistency.
Glaze and decorate:Once the donuts are done, remove them from the air fryer and let them cool slightly.
Dip each donut into the glaze, allowing any excess to drip off.
If you want to add toppings like sprinkles, nuts, or coconut, do so while the glaze is still wet.
Serve:Enjoy your homemade air fryer donuts while they're still warm for the best taste and texture.
