Making frozen pierogies in an air fryer is a quick and convenient way to enjoy this delicious dish with a crispy twist. Here’s a simple guide to help you prepare them perfectly.

Ingredients:

• Frozen pierogies (any filling of your choice)
• Olive oil or cooking spray
• Salt and pepper (optional)

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Air Fryer: Begin by preheating your air fryer to 180°C (350°F) for about 3-5 minutes. This step ensures that your pierogies cook evenly.

2. Prepare the Pierogies: While the air fryer is heating up, take your frozen pierogies out of the freezer. There’s no need to thaw them; they can go straight from the freezer to the fryer. Lightly spray them with olive oil or brush them to give them a lovely golden finish. Season with salt and pepper if you like.

3. Arrange in the Basket: Place the pierogies in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Make sure not to overcrowd them, as this can prevent proper cooking and crispness.

4. Air Fry: Cook the pierogies for about 10-12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking. The pierogies are ready when they are golden brown and crispy on the outside.

5. Serve: Once cooked, remove the pierogies from the air fryer and serve hot. They pair beautifully with sour cream, caramelised onions, or your favourite dipping sauce.

Enjoy your perfectly crisp, air-fried pierogies!
