I used to not preheat my air fryer to make frozen pao de quiejo. It was ok, but then one day out of curiosity I did the preheat, holy shit it made a huge difference. Preheat resulted in a far better crust than using the full sized oven. True story
Sooooo uhhh, asking for a me, how does one preheat an air fryer? I feel like the one here cools off pretty much instantaneously once I open the door on it. Luckily the manual mentioned that I can just add three minutes to suggested times to skip preheating so I just do that 🤷♀️
Air fryers are convection ovens so they don’t need nearly as much heat-up time as, say, ten tons of stone worth of indirectly-fired wood oven, but it’s not like they spit out hot air instantly the resistive elements first have to get up to temperature.

I just run it empty at the temperature the recipe wants for like 5 minutes
