Ingredients

4 Pineapple Rings
¼ tsp Vegetable Oil - see notes

Instructions

If your air fryer requires pre-heating, start this setting now.
Thoroughly dry 4 Pineapple Rings. I do this with paper towels or a clean tea towel.
Brush over roughly ¼ tsp Oil - make sure to cover both sides of the rings.
Use tongs to place the pineapple into the air fryer basket. Leave a little space between each so the air can circulate.
Cook for 12 minutes at 200c/390f.
If you want to turn them after 8 minutes, you can do - I don't need to using the rack in my air fryer and they can be quite delicate so I try to avoid doing this.
Check the colour and caramelisation on the pineapple and if you want more colour, keep cooking for 1 or 2 minutes at a time until they have the colour you want.
Once you're happy, carefully remove the rings from the air fryer and serve hot!

Notes

The air fryer version of this recipe is tested in a Cosori Lite (‎CAF-LI401S) with a 3.8 litre capacity. The square(ish) shaped basket is 21cm x 21cm and 24cm on the diagonal.
Not all models advise preheating is required. Please follow the recommended instructions for your model. Mine has a specific preheat setting which is 4 minutes at 205c.
For this recipe, I can just fit 4 rings in the basket at a time. This gives plenty of room to allow air to circulate.
As all air fryer models are a little different, you may find that you can fit more or less in at a time. Some models include stacking shelves which will increase capacity.
Required cooking times and temperatures can also vary between models and brands. If you know that your air fryer runs a little hotter than most recipes suggest, use a lower temperature. And vice versa. Equally if you find that food cooks more quickly in your machine than instructions usually state, reduce the cooking time (or check it earlier) and vice versa.
