Pumpkin in air fryer is quick to prepare and very convenient as you can place it in the air fryer basket with the skin on, so you don’t have to worry about peeling the skin, which is often very hard and poses a risk of cutting your fingers. The pumpkin in the air fryer will be ready not only to serve as a side dish but also for many recipes where pumpkin needs to be cooked first, such as pumpkin pesto.
