Can Airfryer replace toaster oven?

An air fryer can be used as a replacement for a toaster oven or other cooking appliances because it does so much more than just frying food.

By making the air circulate all around the oven, your food gets heated evenly and without cold spots. Several toaster ovens come with two settings; heat or convection bake. So, when you’re baking a pizza or just reheating pizza slices, you can choose whether you want to use the convection or not.

Add your bread to the air fryer basket. Set the temperature to 400 F | 204 C, and air fry for 4 minutes. If you have very thin sliced bread, your toast will probably be done in 3 minutes. If you like your toast dark, add 30 seconds more.

No, air fryers are not a gimmick. If you’re looking for a way to cook food that’s crispy with less oil, less fat, but still retaining all the moisture without spending hours in the kitchen, then owning an air fryer is the solution. Air fryers are incredibly easy to clean, easy-to-use, and safe for every kitchen.

Toaster ovens can cost anywhere from $25 to $1,000, but we focused our search on those priced between $25 and $550.

Fortunately, convection ovens are great for cooking frozen pizzas. And, they really do make the best tasting pizza at home, even when you’re starting from the freezer. Baking a frozen pizza in a convection oven is really easy to do.

Energy Efficiency Although the power consumption of an air fryer is usually higher than that of a toaster oven, to calculate the performance in terms of usage time compared to power usage, the air fryer is still more energy efficient than the toaster oven.
