Can I get these recipes in a book rather than trying to print out each one?

Please tel me you have a book with these recipes!!
Pat Radford says
Do you have a recipe for air fryed blooming onion?
prudentpennypincher.com says

Elaine Lake says
What about recipes or at least cooking time/temp for lamb chops, leg of lamb, lamb shoulder roasts?
prudentpennypincher.com says
Hi Elaine,
These are the only two recipes that I know of for lamb: https://twosleevers.com/spicy-lamb-sirloin-steak/ and https://forktospoon.com/2018/02/air-fryer-herbed-lamb-chops.html
Hope they help,
Stephanie
Patricia says
I want to know if I can cook corned beef in my air fryer? The kind you buy in the store that is uncooked with the spice packet in it?
prudentpennypincher.com says
I wouldn’t recommend it because it needs moisture to keep from drying out. If you have an instant pot or pressure cooker, I highly recommend this recipe: https://www.familyfreshmeals.com/2017/03/instant-pot-corned-beef-and-cabbage.html or slow cooker: https://dinnerthendessert.com/crispy-slow-cooker-corned-beef/
Pete says
No but i do corned beef in my instapot and works out nice and tender.
Mary Ann says
I would love to join the fb airfryer group but because I am not super computer savvy, I cannot answer the admin’s questions. What is the URL, something about the blog….
Makes me 😔
Joanne walker says

John Ross says
You couldn’t make you app more if you tried, I find a recipe I want to try I click on it and it takes me to an ad trying to sell me a dress?
prudentpennypincher.com says
Oh no! I’m sorry that happened. 🙁
I’m not getting any reports from others about this, but if you let me know which links you were trying to click on, I will investigate this issue for you!
Kathleen Easterday says
It took me 2 full years to finally using my Instant Pot, so to say I’m not adventurous in the kitchen would be an understatement ! So here I am, 6 months with my Air Fryer, not wanting to repeat history. Thank you for gathering all these wonderful, recipes! I am ready for a little adventure!
ricardo gallegos says
