Pro Tips For Cooking Stromboli In Air Fryer
Stromboli is a delicious Italian-American dish made with pizza dough and various ingredients, such as cured meats, cheese, and vegetables. Cooking stromboli in an air fryer quickly and easily achieves a crispy crust and perfectly melted filling. Here are some pro tips for cooking stromboli in an air fryer:
- Preheat the air fryer: Preheating your air fryer will help ensure that your stromboli cook evenly and thoroughly. Set your air fryer to 330°F and let it preheat for a few minutes before adding your stromboli.
- Use parchment paper: To prevent the stromboli from sticking to the air fryer basket, use parchment paper. Roll out the dough on the parchment paper, add the filling, and then use the paper to roll the stromboli carefully.
- Brush with olive oil: Before cooking, brush the stromboli with olive oil. This will help the dough to brown and crisp up in the air fryer.
- Don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket: Make sure there is enough space between the stromboli and the sides of the air fryer basket. Overcrowding the basket can result in uneven cooking and a soggy crust.
- Cook in batches: Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to cook the stromboli in batches. This will ensure that each stromboli has enough space to cook evenly and get crispy.
- Check frequently: Keep an eye on the stromboli as it cooks in the air fryer. It may cook faster than you think, so check it frequently to avoid overcooking.
- Let it rest: Once the stromboli is done, remove it from the air fryer and rest for a few minutes before slicing. This will let the filling settle and prevent it from spilling out when you slice it.
With these pro tips, you can create delicious and crispy stromboli in your air fryer!
