The recipe for caramelized cherry tomatoes in the air fryer is very useful because these confit cherry tomatoes are versatile as they can be placed on top of burrata to complete a bruschetta, added to a few tablespoons of crescenza to dress pasta, complete a savory pie, or even eaten as they are, as the experts say!
CARAMELIZED TOMATOES are perfect when cooked with the air fryer because they remain juicy, almost sugary, very tasty, and definitely full of flavor and aromas.
Moreover, in the air fryer, caramelized or confit cherry tomatoes require very little EVO oil, resulting in a light and appetizing dish.
I added oregano and thyme along with sugar and the usual salt and pepper, but marjoram also goes very well…
If you want, place them in an airtight jar and keep them in the fridge for 2/3 days if you wish to prepare another succulent recipe!

PREPARATION OF CARAMELIZED CHERRY TOMATOES IN AIR FRYER
Very simple recipe …FIRST OF ALL, I HEAT THE AIR FRYER TO 340°F
I wash, dry, and cut THE CHERRY TOMATOES IN HALF, arranging them without overlapping in the air fryer tray with the cut side facing up.
Then I season these juicy cherry tomatoes with sugar, a minced garlic clove (I didn’t use it all), oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper.
I lightly spray EVO oil, trying to season all the future confit cherry tomatoes in the special paper tray.
I bake at 340°F for 20-25 minutes, checking the baking several times for browning, aroma concentration, and intensity of the cherry tomatoes.
The cooking time depends on the size of the tomatoes and how dry you want them to be to concentrate the flavor.
The picture below is awful, but these are the cherry tomatoes BEFORE going into the air fryer …
