Oven to air fryer converter
Estimated air fryer settings
Enter your oven settings to get an estimate.
Use the packet’s air fryer instructions if available. This range is for an early check. Continue cooking until the food is cooked through.
How we estimate
Fresh: For a conventional oven, subtract 20°C. For a fan oven, keep the temperature as a starting assumption. Use 75–80% of the oven time in either case.
Frozen: Enter the oven instructions for cooking that product from frozen. The range is an early checking window based on Instant Pot UK’s half-time rule for many frozen foods. Fry keeps the oven temperature and uses 50–55% of the oven time. Product-specific air fryer instructions take priority.
Fry rounds to whole minutes. Use the lower end to start checking and keep cooking until the food is cooked through. Follow your appliance instructions and check that it supports the suggested temperature.
