Expert Tips

Always read labels to make sure each recipe ingredient is gluten free. Products and ingredient sources can change.
Dried herbs can be substituted for fresh herbs; just reduce to 1/4 teaspoon of each herb.
Air fryer temperature control settings vary according to brand and model. If your air fryer does not have the exact temperature setting called for in the recipe, consult your manual for suggested temperature settings.
Our recipes do not call for preheating your air fryer. Just set the temperature, and start. Never preheat with parchment paper alone.
