AIR FRYING TIPS & HINTS
Air frying is a healthy alternative to deep-frying in oil. A high-velocity
fan and an upper heating element circulate air to prepare a variety
of foods that are both delicious and healthier than traditional fried
foods.
• Air frying doesn’t require oil, but a light coating of cooking spray
or drizzle of oil tossed with food can enhance browning.
• Toss Reminder is recommended when cooking large quantities
that overlap and larger foods like chicken cutlets. Do not overload
the basket; more surface area will result in faster cooking and
better results.
• Foods will cook more evenly when they are cut into equal-size
pieces with minimal overlap.
• An assortment of coatings can be used on air-fried foods.
Some examples of different crumb coatings include breadcrumbs
(plain, seasoned, and panko), crushed cornakes, potato chips,
and graham crackers. Various ours (including gluten-free) and
other dry foods like cornmeal work as well.
• When cooking proteins, marinades and juices will drip to the
bottom of the basket. This is a great base for a gravy or pan sauce.
• When air frying greasy foods (e.g., bacon), grease will drain into the
bottom of the air fry basket. As a precaution, allow hot grease to
cool in the basket before cleaning.
• Use tongs or a silicone spatula to remove food from the basket.
• Use the light/window feature to check on cooking food. The basket
can also be removed to check on the food (this will pause the
cooking until the basket is reinserted into the unit).

AIR FRYER CHART
The chart below lists recommended cooking times, temperatures, and portions for various types of foods that can be air fried in the
Cuisinart® Basket Air Fryer. If portions exceed recommendations, you can toss or flip foods occasionally while cooking to ensure
the crispiest, most even results. Smaller amounts of food may require less time. For best air fry results, periodically check on food
through viewing window.
NOTE: Use a heat-safe baking pan (not included) on the crisper plate for baked goods, quiches, or casseroles.

Operation Why won’t my unit turn on?
Make sure your unit is plugged into a functional outlet.
Make sure the air fryer basket is securely in place in the unit.
Call Consumer Service at .1-800-726-0190
Cooking
Why are fried foods not crispy
or fried evenly?
Some foods may require more oil than others. If not crispy enough, lightly spray, brush, or rub more
oil on the food.
Make sure food is spread evenly in a single layer in the air fryer basket with no overlap. If food still
overlaps, toss or ip food halfway through cooking cycle; use the Toss Reminder for an audio alert.
Put the food in for additional cooking time. Make sure to check frequently until food reaches desired
brownness.
Why is my food undercooked?
If you put too much food in the basket, it may not cook in the suggested time. Try using smaller
batches of food and single layers, rather than stacking food items on top of each other.
If the temperature is too low, the food may not fully cook. For air frying, the ideal temperature
is around 400ºF.
Cleaning
How do I clean tough-to-
remove food residue from the
basket/crisper plate?
To remove baked-on grease, soak the accessories in hot, sudsy water or use a nonabrasive cleaner.
We recommend hand-washing these parts in hot, sudsy water with a nylon scouring pad or nylon
brush and then thoroughly rinsing them, or washing in a dishwasher.

MORE WAYS TO COOK
In addition to air frying, the Cuisinart® Basket Air Fryer can
be used for baking, roasting, and more. To cook using these
functions, simply select the function and use the temp/time arrows
to select the desired temperature and time (up to 60 minutes).
Some tips and recommendations on temperature and time are
listed below.
• When using the Cuisinart® Basket Air Fryer, cooking times may
need to be reduced because of the convection fan’s high speed.
Start checking foods 5 to 10 minutes before the end of the sug-
gested cooking time.
• When making baked goods in the unit, we recommend:
– Using a heat-safe baking pan (not included) on the
crisper plate.
– For recipes not specifically developed for this Cuisinart®
Basket Air Fryer, we suggest cooking at a lower temperature
(25°F to 50°F lower) than what the recipe indicates.
• To roast vegetables and cuts of meat, set the temperature
to 400°F.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
• Always unplug the air fryer from the electric outlet and allow
it to cool completely before cleaning.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners, as they will damage the finish.
Simply wipe the exterior with a clean, damp cloth and dry
thoroughly. Apply the cleansing agent to a cloth, not directly
onto the air fryer, before cleaning.
• To clean interior walls, use a damp cloth and a mild liquid
soap solution or a spray solution on a sponge. Remove any
residue from cleaners with a clean, damp rag. Never use harsh
abrasives or corrosive products. These could damage the air
fryer's surface. Never use steel wool pads on interior of the
air fryer.
• Air fry basket and crisper plate are dishwasher safe. They can
also be hand-washed in hot, sudsy water with a nylon scouring
pad or nylon brush and thoroughly rinsed.
• Remove the crisper plate from the air fry basket to easily access
the bottom of the air fry basket.
• Any servicing should be performed by an authorized service
representative.

Chicken Caesar Salad
Prepackaged croutons are full of unnecessary salt and other
ingredients. When making your own, you know exactly what you are
putting into your body, and once you see how easy they are, you
will wonder why they were ever purchased in the first place! Here,
the croutons are the star of the show, along with the simplest way
to prepare chicken.
Makes 4 servings
For the chicken:
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, even in thickness
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 garlic clove, smashed and peeled
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
For the croutons:
2 cups cubed (½- to 1-inch cubes) sourdough bread
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 pinches each kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Pinch garlic powder

1 small head romaine lettuce, roughly chopped
3 to 4 tablespoons Caesar dressing, store-bought or homemade
(see Cuisinart.com for a recipe)
2 tablespoons shaved Parmesan
1 lemon, cut into wedges, for serving
1. Put the chicken breasts, along with the 1 tablespoon olive oil, the
smashed garlic clove, and a hefty pinch of salt and pepper, into a
large shallow bowl. Massage the ingredients into the chicken, and
then cover and transfer to the refrigerator to marinate for 30
minutes.
2. While the chicken is marinating, prepare the croutons. Select
Bake, and set the time to 4 minutes and the temperature to
350°F. Press Start/Stop. While the unit is preheating, put the
bread cubes into a large shallow bowl with the 2 tablespoons
olive oil and pinches of salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Toss to
fully coat. Once preheated, add the seasoned bread cubes to the
basket and bake. Remove and reserve.
3. When the chicken is done marinating, transfer to the basket
and place into the air fryer. Select Air Fry, and set the time to 18
minutes and the temperature to 375°F. Press Start/Stop. When
the chicken is done cooking (the internal temperature should
be 170°F), remove and allow to rest for a few minutes, then
thinly slice.
4. Put the romaine into a large serving bowl and top with the
croutons, sliced chicken, and shaved Parmesan, and then drizzle
the dressing over the top. Gently toss. Serve each portion of
salad with a lemon wedge on the side.

Cinnamon-Sugar Doughnut Bites
Not that they will likely hang around much longer, but these
doughnut bites are best eaten just after cooking.
Makes 16 doughnut bites
¾ cup bread flour, plus more for kneading
(up to ¼ cup) and as needed
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
¾ teaspoon active dry yeast
2 pinches kosher salt
2 pinches ground cinnamon
Pinch ground nutmeg
1 large egg, lightly beaten, room temperature
3 tablespoons buttermilk, room temperature
½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, room temperature and cut
into 4 pieces
Melted butter, for finishing (approximately 2 tablespoons)
Cinnamon sugar, for finishing (if preparing at home,
combine ¼ cup granulated sugar with 1 tablespoon
ground cinnamon)
1. Put the flour, sugar, yeast, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg into a
large mixing bowl. Whisk to combine.
2. Whisk the egg, buttermilk, and vanilla together, and then slowly
combine with the flour mixture (use your hands or a wooden
spoon). Lightly dust a clean work surface with flour, and transfer
the dough to the work surface, dusting the dough lightly with
flour. Knead the dough, adding flour as necessary 1 teaspoon at
a time to keep the dough from sticking to your hands. Add the
butter, 1 piece at a time, until all the butter has been
incorporated into the dough. Continue adding flour 1 teaspoon
at a time to keep the dough from sticking to your hands. The
dough should be tender and smooth, and when pulled should
not break apart.
3. Form the dough into a ball. Put in a clean mixing bowl, cover
with a damp towel or plastic wrap, and allow to rise for 1 hour.
After 1 hour, gently turn the dough over, and press it down (do
not punch). Cover and allow to rest for another hour.
4. On a lightly floured surface, divide the dough into 16 pieces.
Working with one piece at a time and keeping the others covered
loosely with plastic wrap, roll between your hands to form into a
small, smooth ball. Once each ball is rolled, cover loosely with
plastic wrap.
5. Once 8 balls of dough have been formed, transfer to the
air fryer basket.
6. Place basket in the air fryer. Select Bake and set the time to 8
minutes and the temperature to 350°F. Press Start/Stop.
Doughnuts bites are done when they are lightly browned. Repeat
with the remaining dough.
7. Once each batch of doughnut bites is finished and still warm,
brush with butter on all sides, and then gently toss in the
cinnamon sugar. Serve immediately.

Raspberry-Peach Hand Pies
All the best parts of the pie without the fuss. There is a reason
hand pies are so popular – they are delicious, easy to assemble,
and very forgiving. If you’re feeling creative, have fun crimping the
edges of the crust or scoring designs on top of each pie.
Makes 10 to 12 hand pies
For the dough:
2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cold and cubed
¼ cup ice water
For the filling:
1 bag (10 ounces) frozen peach slices, thawed
6 ounces fresh raspberries
1/
3 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons tapioca flour/starch
1 tablespoon finely chopped candied ginger
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
For the egg wash:
1 large egg whisked with 1 teaspoon water and pinch of salt
Coarse sugar, for sprinkling (optional)
1. Prepare the dough. Whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt, and
then add the butter cubes. Using your hands, rub the butter into
the flour until the butter is fully coated and broken into pieces
the size of peas. Then add the water and mix until the dough is
no longer powdery dry and is coming together when pinched.
(This process could also be done in a food processor fitted
with the metal chopping blade. First, process the dry ingredients
on Low, and then add the butter. Pulse on High until the butter
pieces are about the size of peas. Slowly pulse in the water
1 tablespoon at a time. Finish bringing the dough together on a
lightly floured surface by hand.) Fold the dough over itself
a few times (this helps to make extra flaky layers), and then
form into two rounds. Wrap well and chill a minimum of two hours
or up to overnight.
2. Just before getting ready to cook, prepare the filling. In a
medium to large mixing bowl, combine the peaches, raspberries,
sugar, tapioca flour, candied ginger, lemon juice, vanilla, salt, and
ground ginger, and mix gently to combine. Reserve.
3. Roll one of the pieces of dough into a large round about 1/8 to
¼ inch thick, and then cut out pieces with a 4-inch round cutter.
Use a slotted spoon to scoop a couple of tablespoons of filling,
letting any excess liquid drain back into the bowl, and place in
the center of one of the rounds. Brush the edge of the filled
round with the egg wash, and then top with an unfilled round of
dough. Press to seal, and then use a paring knife to cut a couple
of small slits on top. Repeat with the remaining dough rounds
from the first piece of dough. Refrigerate the prepared hand pies.
Reserve any dough scraps.
4. Repeat with the second round of dough, combining and rerolling
any dough scraps. Hand pies are very forgiving, so don’t let the
extra dough go to waste!
5. Once the hand pies are assembled and chilled, select Bake,
and set the time to 20 minutes and the temperature to 350°F.
Press Start/Stop.
6. While the air fryer is preheating, brush the tops of four of the
hand pies with egg wash and sprinkle with coarse sugar, if
desired. Once preheated, place into the basket and bake until
nicely browned.
7. Remove and repeat with the remaining hand pies.

CONSEJOS Y SURERENCIAS PARA FREÍR CON AIRE
Freír los alimentos con aire es una alternativa saludable a freírlos con
aceite. Un ventilador de alta velocidad hace circular el aire para freír
una variedad de alimentos de forma más saludable que los métodos
de fritura tradicionales, consiguiendo siempre deliciosos resultados.
• Freír con aire no requiere aceite, pero rociar los alimentos con aceite
en aerosol/rocío vegetal o revolverlos con un poco de aceite antes
de la cocción ayuda a que se doren más.
• Se recomienda usar la función “TOSS REMINDER” (recordatorio
para agitar la cesta/voltear los alimentos a mitad de cocción)
cuando cocine grandes cantidades de alimentos o alimentos
grandes, tales como chuletas de pollo. No sobrellene la cesta;
disponer los alimentos en una sola capa logrará una cocción más
rápida y mejores resultados.
7
• Los alimentos se cocinarán más uniformemente si son del mismo
tamaño y si se disponen en la cesta en una sola capa.
• Una variedad de coberturas pueden ser usadas para rebozar/
empanar los alimentos antes de freírlos con freír con aire,
p.ej., pan rallado (natural, sazonado o “panko”), hojuelas de maíz
picadas, chips de papa picadas, galletas Graham molidas, etc.
Algunas harinas (incluyendo las mezclas sin gluten y la harina de
maíz) también dan buenos resultados.
• Cuando cocine pollo, carne, pescado o mariscos, jugo se acumulará
en el fondo de la cesta. Este jugo es una buena base para preparar
salsa.
• Al freír con aire alimentos grasos (p.ej., tocino), la grasa se
acumulará en la cesta. Deje que la grasa caliente se enfríe antes de
tirarla y lavar la cesta.
• Use pinzas de cocina o una espátula de silicona para retirar los
alimentos de la cesta.
• Use la luz para monitorear la cocción. Nota: También puede retirar la
cesta del aparato para comprobar el estado de cocción (el
temporizador se detendrá hasta volver a colocar la cesta).

TABLA DE REFERENCIA
La tabla a continuación indica el tiempo, la temperatura de cocción y las porciones recomendados para varios tipos de alimentos que
pueden freírse con aire en la freidora de aire Cuisinart®. Si desea freír con aire más alimentos que lo recomendado en la tabla, revuelva
o voltee ocasionalmente los alimentos para conseguir resultados uniformes y crujientes. Pequeñas cantidades de alimentos pueden
requerir menos tiempo de cocción. Para resultados óptimos, compruebe regularmente el estado de cocción por la ventanilla.
NOTA: Coloque una fuente resistente al calor (no incluida) directamente en la rejilla para hornear alimentos tales como pasteles/tartas,
“quiches” y cazuelas.
