Master many cooking techniques in one convection oven. From compact mini oven designs to larger benchtop convection ovens that will perfectly cook a sunday roast, Sage smart countertop ovens and air fryer ovens are ideal cooking appliances for small or large gatherings with friends and family.It can also be used to roast meat and veg, offering more of an oven-like capacity than some of the products on this list that are more limited by height.

The buttons are self-explanatory, so you won’t have to decipher complicated symbols. We loved its cool aesthetic too. In brushed stainless steel, it looks really modern and is probably one of the more 'stylish' air fryer toaster ovens out there. Its one obvious downside is that hefty price tag but if you've got the cash to spend, it's a brilliant investment for your kitchen. Another criterion to take into account is the power of an appliance. The power heavily depends on the capacity - the higher the capacity is, the more power a toaster oven requires. For example, a toaster oven with an average power between 1000 - 1500 watts will be actually enough to satisfy your basic cooking needs. A mini-oven with the power about 2000 Watts and above can easily replace a conventional oven.

Oil: Both air fryers and toaster ovens significantly reduce the amount of oil required in cooking. Whereas you'd perhaps typically slosh oil around a frying pan or baking tray, a minimal spritz is required with air fryers and toaster ovens. Clay crafter best helper .

When the 60 minutes was up, we took a tentative look and were impressed. It looked perfectly cooked and after leaving it to sit for 10 minutes, we started carving it. It was juicy, moist and cooked through, with a crispy skin. The drip tray also meant that clearing up was pretty straightforward, too.
