🍯 Why This Recipe Works
- It's fast. It takes about the same length of time to cook as your regular kitchen toaster, but the sides of your waffles are evenly browned and cooked which I know can sometimes be tricky with older toasters.
- It's simple. You literally just need a box of frozen waffles to make this recipe. You don't even need to thaw them first!
- You can make multiple waffles at once. I was able to fit 4 waffles inside of my 8 quart air fryer basket with room to spare. This can be a faster way to make eggos for everybody in the morning.

🍴 Recipe Tips
Flipping waffles. Flipping over the waffles after 3 minutes is to make sure that both sides of the waffles become golden in color and crispy in texture.
👩🏻🍳 Storage
I recommend only making the waffles as you are prepared to eat them because they taste best when fresh. Leftover waffles can be reheated but they aren't as great tasting as freshly cooked ones.
Keep your leftover waffles in an airtight container or gallon sized Ziploc baggie in the fridge for up to 4 or 5 days. This could be great for meal prepping.
🍳Reheating
To reheat any leftover waffles, simply place them in the air fryer basket and heat at 350 degrees F for 2-3 minutes or until warmed through and crispy. Enjoy!
🥗 Side Dishes
Some great side dish ideas include any of your favorite breakfast side dishes from Scrambled Eggs with Spinach and Tomatoes to homemade hashbrowns and fresh fruits.
