Air fryers are not just for small foods; they can cook larger baked items like pot pies. Preheating the air fryer is essential as it promotes proper cooking and a crispy crust. For Marie Callender's chicken pot pie, reduce the temperature by 35 degrees and check for doneness at 30 minutes, as air fryers cook 20% faster. Utilizing the internal rack improves airflow under the pie, preventing the base from becoming soggy. The cooked pie should hit 165 degrees for safe consumption.
To guarantee that your pie heats through safely and develops a crispy, buttery crust, preheat your appliance first.
Placing your pie in a hot air fryer gives it an initial boost of heat, which encourages steam to be produced inside the pastry.
As air fryers can cook food up to 20% faster than a conventional oven, your pie will be ready much quicker so take a peek at around the 30-minute mark.
Make sure to place your pie on the internal rack instead of directly on the base of your air fryer to maximize airflow.
