The Super Easy Air Fryer Cookbook: Crave-Worthy Recipes for Healthier Fried Favorites

New to the air fryer thing and love this cookbook! Good service, too!

I think this is an excellent air fryer cookbook. The recipes are nicely written, and clearly written, and are things that most of us stock and would also cook and eat. There are always alternate ingredients-and good info. She uses a lot of stevia, but always has amounts for regular sugar, if you wish to use that and mentions that if you are allergic to goldenrod, you may also be allergic to stevia. I didn't know that. She also knows that the pull temperature for pork is now 145º with a three-minute rest. Good. She doesn't cook hamburgers for 45 minutes, like the Brits-good, but commercial hamburger is not safe at 125º. That's the only complaint I have. Other than that, all of the recipes seem like they would work-no alarm bells are going off.Everything is nicely arranged, the photos are quite nice, although everything does not have a photo. I read the "Look Inside" and was quite concerned as there were missing letters in "headers". I wasn't sure what was going on. I thought maybe she was going for "artsy" with different colors, as some cookbooks do, and this can make them very hard to read either in a paperback, or especially on a black and white Kindle. It appears to be an Amazon problem. I have read it both on my Cloud Reader and on my Paperwhite and there are no missing letters, or two-tone fonts.This is a good entry-level air fryer cookbook with a lot of good tips: when to turn, when to shake, when to let things cool in the air fryer before removing them, spice mix recipes in case you can't find the commercial mixes, and the usual recipes that people want to cook in an air fryer: hash browns, burritos, hamburgers, chicken wings, rib eyes, won tons, egg rolls, French Toast Sticks, French Fries, Kale Chips, "pop-tarts", pigs-in-blankets, doughnuts, and a few you wouldn't think of: breaded artichoke hearts, fried olives, vegetarian stuffed peppers, cornmeal shrimp po' boy, fajita-stuffed chicken roll-ups, Swedish meatballs, and more.I purchased the Kindle edition and it's a total deal at 99¢, even though I have several air fryer cook books on my Kindle, and some of the recipes would be repetitive, I thought there would probably be some that I didn't have. It's worth it even for the "repeats" as her recipes are so clearly written. The paperback edition will be out around the middle of this month (Aug. '18) and if you don't have a Kindle, or want it in paperback, that would be well worth it.I also have to add that it is well-edited. I have not seen any typos, which is quite refreshing. All of the fractions in the ingredients are there, there are no "switched" ingredients, such as calling for tuna in a chicken recipe, and that is totally refreshing and appreciated nowadays, especially in Kindle editions. This does not appear to be an OCR, (all numbers are numbers, no exclamation points for the number 1, etc.), but humanly transferred to the Kindle. Brandi and Rockridge Press did a quality job.

This book gives a great overview of the basic info for the use of the air fryer. I have not purchased an air fryer just yet. I do wish that the overview of this kitchen appliance was up to date including Ninja vs Cuisinart. There are a lot of recipes included and they look really good. Overall a great read. Thank Brandy for writing this book.

So. My brother got an air fryer for xmas. We played with it on xmas day with various things. We had ZERO knowledge and did not read the book that came with it. I'm a pretty darn good cook, traditionally, but this air frying thing was out of my expertise. After playing with it for a week I thought it was one of those "fads" but thought that it had some merits. I decided to NOT write it off and do some research. I ran up on this book and purchased it. I spent a couple of days reviewing it and two days later I had my own Ninja Air Fryer.The thing about this book (NOTE: NO PICTURES other than the cover) is that she provided tables on the different types of meats/veggies/seafood you can cook with basic directions. This gave me IDEAS on what I could do with it. Bacon? Really? I'm all in now!During the two days that I waited for my Ninja I reviewed the entire book and made notes on the first things I wanted to try. I am simply amazed. This, from a southern cook that ALWAYS has a crock of bacon grease in the fridge.... just say'in.If you are a NON-cook - this book is easy to follow and your food will turn out fabulous if you follow the directions. If you have just a few skills (or more) you can follow the basic methods and pretty much follow your own recipes to achieve greatness. I'm not kidding. I'm still shocked.Further, my husband can barely boil water - yup - he can burn a boiled egg and he has ZERO interest in cooking and that has not changed during the 20yrs we've been married. This machine ONLY USING THIS BOOK has gotten him interested.I, personally, do not believe air frying is a "fad". I think, if you are considering an air fryer, you MUST have this book. The author gives you so much basic information (including a table comparing various air fryers) and excellent recipes... you cannot go wrong.It is about to KILL me... but I do believe I'm about to toss my deep fryer. I've not yet (in one month) found a single thing I cannot make in my air fryer that is not THIS BOOK I would have passed the entire thing off as a fad and kept on using my oven (longer cooking times) and deep fryer.....I will totally miss my bacon grease. :-)Get this book.

I started following this author on her blog as I searched for healthier recipes to support a macro-approach to nutrition. I love to cook. I love to eat. I'm fairly old school in my approach. Those three things often mean not always eating the healthiest. The air fryer was my first foray into improving on the fried food side of that equation. Her cookbook however is a GAME CHANGER! Seriously, I don't know that I will ever cook chicken thighs any other way - and my family loves chicken thighs - so much tastier than an often bland chicken breast! That said, her recipe for a honey mustard chicken thigh was delicious and SO EASY and FAST. 15 minutes - 20 if you add the 5 minutes of sitting with some seasoning on it. I made this twice in 10 days (per the request of my adult sons), one time with boneless skinless thighs and one time with bone-in. Both times, the chicken was perfectly done. I feel confident making main courses in the air fryer now, which previously was used for potatoes and vegetables! Don't be put off that there are not pictures in the book. The steps are very clear and simple. Plus, if you follow her on IG or simply search, you will find her blog and she demonstrates step by step numerous recipes with pictures or videos. This book has become "the" book though that I will give in conjunction with an air fryer as a gift for anyone new to air frying. It has all the basics needed with times and temperatures.

I Love every recipe I have tried so far! All the air fryer tips have also been very helpful for cooking other dishes. Highly recommend!!

Just what I needed for my new air cooker.

some great hints for your air fryer

This book is full of great but easy recipes. It’s made us realize the wide range of foods that can be prepared using an air fryer.
