HOW TO CHOOSE AN AIR FRYER ?
I use the Cosori Premium 5.8 Quart Air Fryer, which I received for review purposes and it’s so easy to use. It’s easy to clean and preheats much faster than the oven.
This Accessories Kit includes cake pan, pizza pan, baking racks, skewers, silicone mat, silicone egg bites mold. A must have set for the air fryer.
I have this Oil Sprayer to use with the air fryer, perfect for using olive oil and making everything crispy and delicious.
The filling for these crescent rolls is the same as we used for our Air Fryer Sausage Stuffed Mushrooms. They make a great appetizer for any party.
Everyone loves these sausage cream cheese crescents and they are so easy to make. Just a few simple ingredients and you can enjoy them for any meal of the day or a great addition to any appetizers menu along with our Jalapeno Deviled Eggs.
We love to make up a batch and keep them on hand for a quick breakfast or lunch, it’s such a time saver during the week. Plus they are really filling and delicious!
