are you able to cook these in airfryer please.x
SharonMonday 23rd October 2023
Hi sherryanne, generally speaking, silicone moulds can be used in an air fryer, but do check the instructions for your appliance and your silicone mould first. If they are compatible, you should be able to cook the waffles in an air fryer without any problem.
Valerie ScottFriday 23rd September 2022

HollyMonday 26th September 2022
