I often get asked this question:
Why did you buy an air fryer, can’t you use the oven?
Of course I could, but first of all, with an air fryer, you can cook healthier (using less oil) and cook faster (saving energy).
The traditional oven consumes much more and stays on longer: mine takes 15 minutes just to heat up…
I cook everything in the air fryer: lasagna, parmigiana, oven fries that come out like fried ones, meat and fish stay juicy inside, vegetables, appetizers like stuffed olives and potato croquettes, and even desserts!
I’ve made muffins, brownies, and a banana and chocolate cake, all devoured in no time… which means they were good!
I am very satisfied with my purchase and that’s why I recommend it to you. With the air fryer, a whole new world will open up!

How to Prepare Spicy Pumpkin in Air Fryer
Cut the pumpkin into cubes about 1.2 inches and dress them with a drizzle of oil, chopped rosemary, salt, chili powder, and paprika. Give it a good stir to coat all the pieces evenly and pour them into the air fryer basket.
Cook the pumpkin for 10 minutes at 383°F, shake the basket to mix them up, and continue cooking for another 3 minutes.
The spicy pumpkin is ready, serve it immediately.
