Hot Pocket in Air Fryer

I think it is safe to say that the air fryer invention is pretty much genius.

Taking that convection oven feature and putting it into the air fryer unit has made snack lovers rejoice!

Whether you are making frozen foods or snack foods, the air fryer can and will be your best friend in the kitchen.

If you use frozen foods frequently, you should check out our Air Fryer Corn Dogs, Air Fryer Pizza Rolls, Frozen Chicken Tender in air fryer and our Air Fryer Texas Toast.

CAN YOU COOK A HOT POCKET IN THE AIR FRYER?

HOW TO MAKE HOT POCKETS IN AIR FRYER

  1. Remove hot pockets from the packaging.
  2. Put raw hot pockets into the air fryer basket. Air fry the pockets at 370F/189C for 11-13 minutes.
  3. Be sure to flip the pockets mid way through the time.
  4. Cut the pockets in half and enjoy!

HOW LONG DO I COOK A HOT POCKET?

Typically, you cook a hot pocket for 2 minutes in the microwave, but when you use the air fryer you need to adjust the time.

When making air fryer pockets, we suggest you cook at 370F/189C for 11-13 minutes. This cooks the hot pocket evenly and heats throughout.

DO YOU HAVE TO CLEAN AIR FRYER AFTER EVERY USE?

Yes, you need to clean your air fryer after every use.

Even when you are cooking foods that aren’t messy, they can and will leave a residue on your air fryer.

Its best to use soap and water to clean your air fryer baskets and air fryer trays.

Some air fryers have dishwasher safe components, be sure to check your manual to see if yours is compatible with dishwashing!
