Prep Ahead

Can be assembled a day in advance and refrigerated. Try to leave it at room temperature for 30 minutes before air frying.

Recipe Tips

If the top is getting too brown before the middle is cooked, place a piece of aluminum foil on top.

Air frying cooking times should be used as an estimate. Different air fryer brands and models can cook at very different rates. Check early and check often.

Storage

Leftovers will keep for 3 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Reheat in a 350 degree air fryer.
