Air Fryer Frozen Waffles
Frozen waffles are simple to make in the air fryer. Just like any other frozen food item like Air Fryer Arby’s Curly Fries or Air Fryer Frozen Vegetables.
While you're waiting for your frozen waffles to cook in the air fryer heat up some breakfast food on your griddle!
Ingredients Needed for Air Fryer Frozen Waffles
- 1 box or container of frozen waffles (I used a frozen protein waffle from Target)
- Maple Syrup
- Whipped Topping
- Fruit of choice
Equipment:
- Air fryer
- parchment paper
- Tongs or a spatula
How to Make Air Fryer Frozen Waffles
Step 1 Preheat the Air Fryer: Begin by preheating your air fryer to 350°F (200°C).
Step 2 Place some parchment paper down in your air fryer basket and add the frozen waffles. They do not need to be thawed.
Step 3 Set the timer for 5to 6 minutes. And close the basket.
What to Serve with Air Fryer Frozen Waffles
To start, consider adding fresh fruit such as strawberries, blueberries, or bananas. These fruits not only add a burst of flavor but also provide essential vitamins and fiber, making your breakfast more nutritious. You can either scatter the fruit on top of the waffles or serve it on the side.
Next, think about savory options to balance the sweetness of the waffles. Crispy air fryer bacon, air fryer breakfast sausage, or even scrambled eggs can be excellent choices.
Waffle Toppings like maple syrup and butter are timeless favorites, but you can also experiment with whipped cream, chocolate chips, or nut butters like almond or peanut butter.
For a more decadent touch, try adding a scoop of ice cream and some caramel sauce, turning your breakfast into a delightful treat. With these accompaniments, your frozen waffles will be anything but ordinary.
Recommended Tools
I have two air fryers. The Cosori 4 Qt Air Fryer and Ninja Woodfire Grill which is an outdoor air fryer. It’s pretty awesome! It has 5 different functions on it.
How do I store leftovers?
Always store leftovers in clean, food-grade containers. The type of container doesn’t really matter. Use zip lock, glass, plastic, whatever! Make sure to store any leftovers in an airtight container.
Best Air Fryer Tips
- Preheating ensures that the fries cook evenly and achieve the desired crispiness.
- Avoid Overcrowding: Cooking in smaller batches will help the fries cook more evenly and get crispier.
- Shaking the Basket: Shaking the basket halfway through cooking helps ensure that all the fries cook evenly.
- Experiment with Seasonings: Feel free to experiment with different seasonings like garlic powder, paprika, or Cajun spice to add an extra kick to your fries.
