TESTING Viral TIK TOK AIR FRYER RECIPES... is anything worth making?? #5

[@niekvandenberg205]

I am blown away with this air fryer. So easy to use, and absolutely no mess kzbin.infoUgkxD4Qeo-HRLxMfom_PDinM_SBfes00qJsB quick clean up! It's my first air fryer and after reading many reviews on line and on Amazon, and seeing my 2 daughter's air fryers, I chose this particular one because of its size, shape, high reviews, the way the baskets are made and the recipe book. WOW, the 100 pg recipe book has beautiful photos and recipes. First night we made the Mongolian wings (see photo) and they were so crispy, tasty and gorgeous (we put them back into the fryer for an additional 8 minutes to get the darker color). 2nd night we made the Cajun catfish. Both from the recipe book. Clean up was super quick: quick wipe with paper towel followed by wash in hot soapy water, no soaking, no oil to drain nor deal with (see photos). I highly recommend this air fryer, this size is perfect for 2 people! This is hands down the best air fryer!

[@sarahsinton2279]

The two ingredient “donuts” are the recipe for bagels in the air fryer. Add some egg wash and then sprinkle with Everything but the Bagel seasoning. Can also stuff with cream cheese too! Soooo good!!

[@veronicar2026]

I use this recipe for cheat version of naan. Fry in dry pan and then brush with melted butter and sprinkle with chopped parsley

[@sydnielove]

Delicious to both of those! Does it work to make one with vanilla Greek yogurt for a sweet version??

The powdered cheese in the Mac n cheese box is so hard to open because they make the package waterproof for those of us who forget to grab the cheese pouch out before we throw the noodles in the boiling water lol.

[@leahd4611]

To not lose all the cheese , freeeze the "mozza stick" after you batter it for about 20 minutes before air frying.

[@amberhatch563]

I was about to type this cause it didn't look like she freezed them before hand.

[@Cookingwithsadaf]

I would say freeze everything before frying... it's always better!

[@MsMoonlightPrincess]

As a new air fryer owner, I vote for many many future air fryer videos.

[@jessicamahon7480]

When I am slicing fruits or veggies like that, I don’t put the top piece on until I get closer to the blade lol. Probably not safe, but sooooo much easier!!

[@Kath-Erina]

Not safe? Isn't that how everybody does it?

[@zannadunstrand6289]

Working in kitchen and we dont put it on when there's like 5cm (sorry amerikans - Google it😂) left to The blade. Also you dont out weight on it (push it down towards the blade) you just slide it over the blade - it will cut good pieces anyway if its a good sharp blade. It should'nt be as tough as it seems to be for rachel :)

[@Kath-Erina]

@@zannadunstrand6289 yeah same. Also this whole contraption was inconveniently large... We have them completley made from metal and they are just pretty flat over all. So much easyer to use than this thing lol. It's easyer, smaller and faster. And just as safe.

[@Caitybear2point0]

[@britt1458]

I used to do the same thing till i sliced the tips of my index finger and thumb off slicing a cucumber. Bled like mad and hurt very badly

[@yaelbettenhausen4394]

for the donuts, I've seen people do the two ingredient dough to make bagel bites! Stuff some cream cheese blocks inside, sprinkle everything but the bagel with some egg wash or water on the top, stick it in the airfryer, BOOM

[@stephaniemarvon8058]

Yes this! They were originally a really popular recipe in the Weight Watchers community as a way to make bagels. You bake them!

[@allycatwild]

I've made garlic knots, bread sticks, pizza dough, and cinnamon buns with the 2 ingredient dough! It's quite different but if you season it for the savory things it's pretty good!

[@huggledemon32]

Random question: considering her love of marshmallows- has she ever tried to make her own- I used to do it as a kid- and they are surprisingly good!!!!

[@FuzzyStripetail]

Mandy the Mandoline was originally accused of murdering that beet by gruesomely beeting it to death until Rachel confessed and ultimately air fried for the crime.

[@melissamoore939]

Rachel: “I don’t know how much to put in” Me: aggressively yelling “All of it Rachel! ALL. OF. IT!”

[@ketoincontext2306]

She should have added it to the flour as well.

[@LarrietDarling]

A doughnut needs to be deep-fried. Of COURSE just baking it (when the original recipe was deep-fried) is going to taste different and give it a different texture! An air fryer is just a miniature convection oven. The dough you use to make doughnuts can absolutely be used to make a whole heap of other bread things (ie. pizza dough, garlic knots, breadsticks). It's the frying part that makes the doughnut magic happen because of super fast water evaporation and all of that.

[@zapdara]

Exactly. Barry Lewis tried that dough recipe a few years ago specifically for pizza dough (and thought it was great), so I knew right away that without the hot oil Rachel was never going to get doughnuts.

[@pagecarlee626]

Every time I point out that Air Fryers are convection & the word "fry" is a misnomer, people get unreasonably angry. I'm from Texas where pretty much every one I know has a deep fryer (extra points for the Fry Daddy) and the idea of replacing it seems like pure sacrilege

[@melaneemortensen3971]

What about spritzing with oil?

[@desireefairchild9793]

I have made doughnut hole in a air fryer and you definitely need to spray them with the oil off your choice to get them more like doughnuts. I think the ones I make are really good!!!

[@tiffanymoore3182]

If you want more cheese to stay in the sticks, freeze them for about 15 - 30 min. Depends on the size.

[@ItsJustLisa]

True. They also needed to be better created on the ends.

[@kelseyp600]

I bet you could buy a few of the creamers at the end of the holiday season, and freeze them til you’re ready for them. My mom used to freeze milk and then thaw it in the fridge when we were ready to drink it.

[@pecansquirrel3489]

A little peppermint extract, and you can have peppermint coffee all year long!

[@chelseatidwell5545]

The other night we made steak bites in our air fryer! They were amazing! We seasoned the steak with Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, pepper, and steak seasoning. Then cooked on 400 for 8 minutes!

[@CaptinHoot51]

Chris needs to never stop being adorable!

[@carveylover]

For the cheese sticks you are the only person I have seen that dips in the egg more than once. That is a pro move. Everyone else dips it once and wonders why the breading doesn't stick. Well done Rachel. Snaps for you.

[@CaptinHoot51]

Chris needs to needs to never stop being adorable.

[@Kayla_Kimbrell]

As far as the veggie chips go.. my husband found an amazing recipe for thin sliced zucchini and yellow squash on a lightly sprayed sheet pan season to taste and then finely grated parmesan on top baked till brown and crispy. I can't remember the temp and for how long off the top of my head. They're SO good though!! I haven't tried them in the air fryer yet (I just got one for Christmas finally lol) but I bet they'd be just as good in the air fryer as they are in the oven.

[@RachaelLyn]

What timing! I got an air fryer for my birthday and just pulled it out to use for the first time yesterday- still trying to figure it out!

[@sandracunningham2689]

We use that two ingredient dough recipe for personal pizzas!! Equal parts self rising flour and Fage plain Greek yogurt. We season the dough before we make our pizzas too, also oil yours hands because the dough is sticky!! We have also used the dough to make dessert pizzas and bagels 🤤

[@charlottetacy6729]

[@happycanadian8558]

Use a food processor to slice veggies into chips. If you have the slice/grate disk attachment, it works so well and is fast!!

[@ThaDraGun24]

I was surprised the smores turned out. I really thought the marshmallows would just fly around inside the airfryer and make a complete mess. I might need to try that one out 👍

[@faeriesandrainbows]

We've been making those mini s'mores pies in the oven for years. Yum!

[@willow8783]

Making grilled cheese in the air fryer is amazing. Use garlic butter to make it even better. Also, you might consider adding almond flour to the mozzarella sticks breading. I use it in my homemade shake-n-bake for the air fryer and it coats things really well.

[@laurat2509]

[@Joy.Elizabeth]

Yes!! I 100% agree Rachel I want the pumpkin spice creamer year round n those mini eggs from Cadbury while we're at it! 😊😊

[@mansionofcardboard]

Mini eggs are the BEST & the off brands (i think Walmart has a year round one) are NOT THE SAAAAME 😭😭😭

[@cljez]

I'm on WW and the 2ID is a huge thing in the community, and I HIGHLY suggest seasoning the flour before you make the dough. I've only ever made savory items with it and seasoning the flour makes a huge difference in flavor.

[@Cookingwithsadaf]

Yess! I add garlic, onion, and thyme powder with some salt and pepper which makes a huge difference!

[@Dicyroller]

You can add one to two drops of peppermint extract to your coffee creamer. Wala you have it all year. Add till you like the flavor. There is a reason cheese is batter-coated not flowered and rolled in a thing when you fry it in any way. You need the thing on the outside to be a solid barrier before the cheese starts to melt out of the tube you made. Yes, different veggies need different amounts of time to dehydrate. I am going to make the smores. As far as the last one fallow your heart.

[@sandracunningham2689]

When you were inhaling the s'mores I was thinking why has she not called Chris to try them. Something had to be so over the top good that you left Chris out. When is your cookbook with hacks coming out. Lots of good comments and ideas .

[@addisonlee9551]

RACHEL parmesan crusted zucchini chips is a classic that my mom makes but she bakes them and they are FANTASTIC

[@amandahugen]

I second the donut balls as bagels! Add butter and everything seasoning or cream cheese

[@kellij91]

I love slicing zucchini, sprinkling it with parm cheese and air frying. Delicious

[@soul00theeundead]

the donuts you made are similar recipe I use for my pizza dough, garlic butter stickers and pigs in a blanket dough. I do bread flour, melted butter, room temp plain greek yogurt, warm water and yeast for my dough.

[@katerinapavlidou5744]

Guys! I have tried the donuts with sugar and cinnamon on top (without the sugar inside the dough) and they were the best highly recommend! Be sure to put some oil on top so that the sugar and cinnamon stick though.

[@Cookingwithsadaf]

I don't even have an air fryer yet, but I watch all of your videos and get inspired to make them! I made some of the recipes using the fan option on my oven so it makes a drying effect, it's not similar to the air fryer but close enough! Air fryers aren't common or available where I live (or super expensive) so I have to make it with what I have!

[@karincope3019]

I use biscuit dough and make donuts , then make an icing sugar glaze and dip the donuts in the glaze . I use 2 round cookie cutters as I don’t have a donut cutter . 5 min in my Air Fryer .

[@candacel3305]

I'll be making those s'more pies tonight. Those look so good!

[@its_merryl]

I would love to see you and Chris try to make disney movie food recipes!

[@Oh_that_mle]

Couple notes: 1. I would have put the cheese sticks in the freezer for a bit to firm up before breading and air frying. Helps keep the cheese where’s you want it. 2. The 2-ingredient dough is for a “bagel” not a donut…so it definitely could be pizza or add everything but the bagel seasoning (egg wash to get it to stick)

[@hiitskaitlyn]

The veggie slicing made me so anxious!!

[@Joy_of_life88]

Breaded stuff in the air fryer gets a lot better when you spray it with a little bit of oil...

You can buy those mini pie tins in bulk cause Iv never seen premade cookie bases before where I live but its good to know I could still try it

[@vickigordon8391]

We make 2 ingredient doughnut holes, but with melted ice cream and SR flour! Equal amounts of both! That counters the sour tang you metioned with the yoghurt!

[@kerrystuart8958]

The two ingredient dough makes amazing flatbread, you roll out to thin circles and cook in pan on both sides. Can also add herbs and flavors for flavored flat bread 😊

[@Middleagersviewreviewuk]

We use the self raising flour and yogurt as a quick no waiting pizza dough! It works every time and fab

[@shannen7917]

If you want even prettier beets, try Chioggia, or candy cane, beets. They’re so fun!

[@sophiae.anderson4646]

That peppermint creamer is literally my favourite. I buy lots when it's available and freeze it so I can have it later in the year.

[@vickigordon8391]

You could also pop a tiny bit of tomato puree and some cheese inside to make pizza bites! Add a slice of pepperoni on top when you put them in the air fryer, and the pepperoni would go nice and crispy too!

My mom wanted peppermint creamer and they were out 😕 so she bought the Italian sweet cream and added one drop of peppermint essential oil to the bottle (you can also use peppermint extract we started at 1/4 tsp and can add more as per your liking) and it was so good so now we can have peppermint creamer year round and omg it is so yummy I wanted to drink it from the bottle!

[@dharshaniedesilva6631]

[@batkate12]

I do zucchini chips all the time in the oven :) tiny sclices, on a parchemin paper and a baking sheet, a little olive oil, no touching, a little salt, 450 in the oven, 10-15 minutes, then in a bowl with your spices of choice ( my favorite are bbq and pizza spices) then enjoy! :) sometimes they need more time if they are not thin enough, you can also take off salt a little before baking, put salt on them, wait 10 minutes, dry with a paper towel, then start the process!

[@annemariebarta8843]

Ex-Bakery Manager here 🙋‍♀️👩‍🍳: With the donut holes, I definitely agree to add sugar and make them 3 ingredients; but also with the glazing, you should try soaking the donut holes in the glaze for a few seconds (like, straight out of the air fryer and into the glaze) so they can absorb some of the sweetness. Also, if you want the glaze to have that sort of "hard, shininess" (like most glazed donuts), throw them on a cooling rack that's placed on top of a baking sheet and heat in the oven (at like, 275 F) for no more than 2 minutes. (you could probably also throw them back into the air fryer, but you'll need to find some sort of wire rack that would fit in it...and make sure to put some tinfoil down so it doesn't get all sticky! 😅)

[@trinityrose5203]

My two favorite things to make in my air fryer are roasted potatoes and hard boiled eggs. The potatoes are easy, just cutting baby potatoes into cubes, adding a little olive oil, and some of your favorite seasoning (I like Italian or BBQ seasoning.) and air fry at 400 for 10 minutes, stir, and cook for another 5. Hard boiled eggs are simple. 15 minutes at 270, then an ice bath to cool them.

[@AmandaLyfe87]

I use the 2 ingredient flour/greek yogurt for a quick pizza dough, it's great for kids to make.

[@lizodams]

I use the 2 ingredient recipe for flatbreads. It’s really lovely with a bbq or pizza.

[@hirtisrandolph4843]

Always cream the butter on its own unless it's getting melted. Letting it have more air makes it more malleable. Extracts infuse the mixtures with flavor and the alcohol evaporates over time, meaning they don't really matter in terms of moisture. Also, powdered sugar is mixed with corn starch. It thickens when heated and the starches burst and release the pure essence of stickiness. So, whip butter first and slowly adding more cold milk until the consistency is right would have been best.

[@seriliaykilel]

I’ve done the two ingredient donuts fried and they are pretty nice (rolled them hot in cinnamon sugar)

[@JadeCanada237]

Rachel I don't know how you feel about flavoured syrups, but Skinny Mixes makes a wide variety of flavour syrups including mint, they even have smaller bottles in a holiday trio if you wanted to try them. I have the vanilla and it's good. They are great in drinks as well as on ice cream etc. They also have a Canadian warehouse so no duties/taxes, and shipping was fast 😀☕
