Your wonderful (and simple) recipes have encouraged me to use my air fryer more. I have a maintenance question. How do you keep your air fryer so clean? Your basket is spotless. Do you have a cleaning technique to recommend? Cleaning the basket is a 30-minute task for me with the end result being less than picture-perfect. If there’s a quicker, more effective procedure, I’d welcome the knowledge. Again, thank you for your excellent recipes.
I just wash the basket with a sponge and Dawn dish soap. If the dirt doesn’t come off, fill the basket with hot water and some dish soap and soak overnight, then try washing it again. Good luck!
