Air Fryer Converter
Convert traditional oven recipes to air fryer time and temperature settings
Golden Rule: Lower temp by 20°C and decrease time by 20-30%.
Air fryers heat fast; preheating is often unnecessary.
If overcrowded, flip halfway and add 2-3 extra minutes.
Check the food in the last 5 minutes to prevent burning.

Frequently asked questions
Why can't I use oven settings directly?
An air fryer's rapid fan circulation transfers heat far more efficiently, so the standard adjustment is about 20°C lower and roughly a fifth shorter time — then fine-tune by watching the browning.
Is the converted time a guarantee?
No — basket size and wattage vary widely between models. Treat the result as a starting point, pull the basket a few minutes early the first time, and adjust from there.
Does food category change the math?
Yes — meat, baking and frozen presets apply slightly different reductions. When unsure, use General and check doneness early.
