Worked example

An oven recipe at 400 degrees F for 30 minutes converts to 375 degrees F for 24 minutes in an air fryer (400 - 25 = 375; 30 x 0.8 = 24).

What this tool does not do / Limits

This is a starting-point conversion, not a guarantee. Check food early, shake or turn halfway where the recipe calls for it, and always check that food is cooked through.

Frequently asked questions

Does this work for every recipe?

No. Delicate bakes, large roasts and recipes that rely on slow oven heat may need different adjustments; use the converted time as a check point, not a finish line.

Why lower the temperature?

An air fryer circulates hot air close to the food, so it cooks faster and browns more strongly than a conventional oven at the same setting.
