Tip
A common pitfall many face is overcooking their frittata. If left in the air fryer for too long, frittatas can become rubbery and lose their moist, fluffy texture. It is essential to keep a close eye on it, especially as you get closer to the recommended cooking time. Gently insert a knife or a toothpick into the very centre of the frittata. If it comes out clean, your frittata is ready to be served.
Tip
Depending on the brand and model, cooking times can vary. The first time you make a frittata in your air fryer, it might be a trial-and-error process. But once you have nailed the perfect timing for your appliance, you will have consistently splendid frittatas every time.
