Air fryers have become a kitchen staple, creating a demand for specialized recipes that require minimal cleanup. This has led to a surge in popularity of air fryer cookbooks, with Pinch of Nom Air Fryer: Easy, Slimming Meals topping Amazon‘s Book lists even before it was officially released.
Pinch of Nom, the 5 million-copy best-selling author, has several cookbooks to its name, but their latest collection is one they claim has been in high demand. The air fryer cookbook – which costs £10 at Amazon, Waterstones and WH Smith – promises “super easy, calorie-counted and utterly delicious air fryer recipes”, although it’s worth mentioning that each recipe includes calorie counts, which can be off-putting for some individuals .
The cookbook contains a mix of all-new recipes and adaptations of Nom’s classic and best-loved dishes, all designed specifically for a deep fryer. Each recipe has undergone triple testing and is accompanied by a photograph to guide you as to what the final dish should look like.

The book also highlights meals that can be prepared in under 30 minutes, clearly indicating preparation and cooking times. Plus, there’s no need to search for obscure ingredients because the recipes use “easy to find” items.
Since the book hasn’t been released yet, it’s hard to gauge public opinion. However, last year’s release, Pinch of Nom Express: Fast, Delicious Food, has an impressive average rating of 4.6 out of 5 stars from over 2,000 reviews collected in just six months, Wales Online reports.
One happy customer exclaimed: “Another great book from pinch of nom. The recipes are easy to understand and each recipe tells you if you can freeze it, which products contain gluten so need to be replaced with a gluten free option if you are gluten free .free though it is dairy free and how hot the recipes are.
A third fan shared the praise: “There are also lots of delicious vegetarian recipes that my daughter will be excited about. Thank you Kay and Kate and the whole Pinch of Nom team! You’ve knocked it out of the park again with another incredible Book!
But not everyone was happy, with one person saying: “I bought this book because I’ve bought previous Pinch of Nom books. The problem I have with this book is that it has so many recipes that I wouldn’t want to make or eat. I’m always looking for easy meals that will not only feed me but also the family. Thought there would be more recipes I’d like to try in there but guess that’s just my preference.”
While “Pinch of Nom” has become a sensation, it’s worth noting that the competition isn’t far behind with other enticing titles like “Gluten Free Air Fryer: Over 100 Fast, Simple, Delicious Recipes.” This challenger has quickly amassed hundreds of ratings and has a near-perfect score of 4.9 out of 5 stars. You can also try the Sunday Times bestselling air fryer cookbook Poppy Cooks: The Actually Delicious Air Fryer Cookbook for £10 on Amazon or £20 on Waterstones.
