If you recently got an air fryer but don’t know how to use it, you’re not alone. Air fryer recipes, especially healthy air fryer recipes, are some of the most searched for on the internet. However, you don’t have to scroll through pages and pages of Pinterest to learn the best tips and tricks.

Amazon is filled with air fryer cookbooks to teach you the basics and provide recipes beyond french fries and chicken tenders. Heck, you can make steaks, crispy veggies and even some baked goods with your air fryer!

Keep in mind that an air fryer is pretty much just a small convection oven. The only difference is that instead of baking, it air fries by rapidly circulating hot air around your food. This creates a crispy texture, similar to deep frying (but with a lot less oil).

You can get this magnetic air fryer cheat sheet that provides heat levels and cook times for air frying most foods. But if you want actual step-by-step recipes and instructions, take a look at some of Amazon’s best-selling air fryer cookbooks below to make better meals ASAP.
