We can’t help but love the air fryer. Put something in the basket, and it comes out crispy and golden and perfect every time (no way there isn’t a unicorn or a wizard involved somehow!). From mini crescent dogs to pork chops, this small and mighty countertop appliance does it all and then some. Working like a compact convection oven, it bakes whatever is inside to an all-over golden brown—saving you the hassle of the hot, spattering oil of a deep fryer. That means that, yes, you can make crispy, golden fries or your favorite Sausage Crescent Cheese Balls without having to turn on the oven or dunk anything into a vat of grease. But you can save the in-depth science class about convection for another day: The real magic is the warm feeling of family gathered around wholesome homemade food your kids will love, made easier and faster than you would imagine. Whether you’re looking to save space in the oven for Christmas dinner this year or just love to try new cooking methods and gear, listen to your inner Doughboy and give yourself the gift of an air fryer. Then, try one of our recipes and taste for yourself why this countertop appliance is our go-to kitchen gadget of 2019.
