Reheat: For that perfect crunch, reheat in the air fryer at 400°F for 3–5 minutes. This will bring them back to their golden, crispy best!
Make Ahead: Prepare a batch in advance, let them cool, and store in the fridge or freezer. When it’s time to enjoy, just reheat in the air fryer, and they’ll be as good as fresh!
