How to Make Air Fryer Tomatoes

15 minutes is all you need from start to finish with these yummy fried green tomatoes. Plus, because you are using the air fryer, there are no oil splatter messes to clean up!

Don’t overlap: I know that it’s tempting to fit in the most food possible in your air fryer but don’t do it! Make sure that each tomato has its own place in the air fryer and that they don’t overlap at all! This will ensure that they all get as crispy as possible and don’t have soggy spots where they have been touching.Batter: When you coat them with the eggs and flour, don’t go too heavy on it. Shake them off before moving to the next stage so that each tomato has about the same amount on it. This will make sure they are all evenly cooked and done at the same time!Air fryer parchment paper: If you want an especially easy cleanup, you can buy some parchment paper that has holes in it for air flow that is specifially made for air fryers. This will help you be able to just take everthing out and wipe it all up super easily!

Refrigerator: You can store your leftover fried green tomatoes in an airtight container in your fridge for up to 3 days.Freezer: You can freeze your fried green tomatoes to eat for later!

No need to thaw them before reheating just put them frozen in your air fryer!Reheating: Set your airfryer to preheat at 350 degrees. Cook these for 5-6 minutes, flipping halfway. Enjoy!
