Air fryer times for baking
Baking is the category where air fryer instructions diverge furthest from the oven recipe you are holding. Cosori runs cookies and cupcakes at 300 °F against the 350–375 °F a recipe normally calls for, because the fan sets and browns the top of a batter long before the middle has risen. Everything here also needs parchment, and loose parchment in an empty basket is a genuine fire risk rather than a fussy warning.
