👩🏻🍳Air Frying Tips
- Cook the meatballs in a single layer as much as possible, so they cook evenly on all sides. Overcrowding will result in the meatballs steaming, keeping them from getting crispy.
- If your air fryer tends to overheat, cook the beyond meatballs at a lower temperature (375F) to prevent them from burning.
- It is best to check on the beyond meatballs 4 minutes into the cooking time so you can flip them if needed and remove them from the air fryer as soon as they are cooked through.
- For extra crispy meatballs, cook for an additional 2-3 minutes in the air fryer.
- How long do you cook beyond meatballs in the air fryer? This depends on your individual air fryer. Most meatballs will be fully cooked in 8 minutes at a temperature of 400F. Frozen meatballs could take up to 12 minutes, depending on their size.
