Why I love my Air Fryer!
I’ve been using an air fryer for years now and I have to say I really love it! I’ve spent years coming up with Easy Family Meals and Easy Snacks For Kids but having an air fryer really has been a game changer!
Air frying is is brilliant for making quick and easy meals for kids when your meal prep game maybe hasn’t been on point!
Which Air Fryer Is The Best?
There’s so many different air fryers out there on the market at the moment. Some of the big brand names are expensive but I have been using this Uten 6.5 Litre Air Fryer since last year and I love it.
It’s really big, perfect for family sized meals and fits a whole chicken too!
Air Fryer Recipes For Kids
The internet is absolutely jam packed with air fryer meals and recipes at the moment, but I’ve noticed that a lot of them are geared towards more adult meals than kids friendly ones.
So I wanted to put together a list of simple recipes that are more aimed towards kids.

Air Fryer Chicken Nuggets
I’m yet to meet a kid that doesn’t like chicken nuggets but they don’t always have the healthiest reputation! So rather than cooking them in the deep fryer or the oven, pop these in your air fryer basket where you’ll use less oil, less time and and have a much healthier alternative!
