Everything you'll need to make our quick air fryer crumpets recipe
- Air Fryer – we now use a Ninja Foodi Max Dual Zone Air Fryer – the 9.5 litre two drawer cooking space is BRILLIANT when you’re cooking for a family or cook larger portions. Or just like to cook two different things on different settings at the same time!
- Shallow bowl
- Fork
- Air fryer liners or sheet of tin foil for easier cleaning up!
- Tongs – just makes it easier to lift the cheese toastie from the air fryer basket. I’d 100% recommend you get yourself a set of silicone tongs if you do a lot of air fry cooking. They just make it so much easier to flip and remove food. Plus they don’t scratch the air fryer non-stick coating.
