Recipe Tips

  • I highly recommend preheating the air fryer for the best result. If you do not preheat the air fryer, you will need to increase the cooking time by a few more minutes.
  • A meat thermometer comes in handy for checking whether the meatballs are cooked. The internal temperature of the meatballs should be roughly 75°C (170°F).
  • Chicken, beef, pork, or lamb meatballs will all cook roughly the same, so feel free to use whatever you like the most.
  • You may need to increase the cooking time if your meatballs are large.
  • Spraying the meatballs with oil will help get a better cook on the outside.
  • The nutritional information is only an estimate and will vary heavily depending on the brand of frozen meatball you have bought. Please refer to the packet for the most accurate information.
