Faqs
Can I make a pecan pie in the air fryer?
Yes, Place the pie in the air fryer basket or on the rack and air fry at 350°F for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy. Cover with foil if the top of the pie begins to brown before the cooking time is up.
Can I cook a pie in my air fryer?
Pies bake well in a conventional oven, but you can also try them in an air fryer. According to Fiona, air-fried pies will work fine, but due to the lack of a bottom heating element, you may not achieve a crisp brown base.
What temperature do you cook an air fryer pie?
Cook for 18-23 minutes at 320 degrees F using the air fry option.
The top of the pie crust should be golden brown, and the bottom should be done. After it has finished cooking, sprinkle with brown sugar, white sugar, powdered sugar, or another pinch of the cinnamon and sugar combination.
