Air Fryer Cleaning
Air fryers (USA) (Canada) have become a popular kitchen appliance, and for good reason. They are so convenient and everything you cook in them comes out crispy and delicious.
It’s important to regularly clean and maintain your air fryer to ensure it continues to work efficiently.
When you buy through our links, we may earn a small commission.
It’s a quick and easy process that should be done every time you use it to prevent the buildup of grease and leftover foods.
1. Unplug your air fryer and allow it to cool completely before cleaning. This is important to prevent any risk of burns or accidents.
2. Remove the basket and tray from the air fryer. You have 3 options for cleaning the basket:
- Some air fryers have dishwasher-safe parts so that you can place them in the dishwasher for easy cleaning.
- Our favorite product is Dawn® Powerwash Dish Spray (USA) (Canada). Just spray, let it sit for a few minutes, then use a scrub brush or non-abrasive sponge to clean any grease or food residue. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
- Blue Dawn® dish soap (USA) (Canada) and water is a great option if you don’t have any Powerwash. Wash in a sink of hot soapy water, then rinse and dry.

3. Wipe down the inside of the air fryer with a clean cloth, hot water and your Dawn® product of choice. Pay extra attention to any greasy spots or buildup. Rinse away any product residue using a clean damp cloth. You may need to wipe areas several times.
4. Use a dry scrub brush to remove any stubborn food particles stuck in the heating element or vents of the air fryer. Be gentle and avoid wetting the electric coil, so you don’t damage the appliance.
5. Once everything is clean, let all parts dry thoroughly. Reassemble the air fryer and plug it back in.
If you’re concerned about any residual odors or cleaning agents, run it for a few minutes without any food to burn them off.

6. Wipe down the exterior using your Dawn® of choice. For that extra sparkle, use Windex® (USA) (Canada) (for a plastic exterior) or Wiemans® Stainless Steel Cleaner (USA) (Canada) (for a metal exterior) to shine it up like a pretty penny.
By following these simple steps each time you use it, you’ll keep your air fryer in tip-top shape and be ready to try out all the wild recipes social media throws at you!

Prime Day is HERE (July 8–11) and this OGX® 5-step bond repair system is part of the deals 🙌🏻
It’s made for damaged hair, works from the inside out to restore, strengthen, smooth, and protect hair. Miracle? Science? Either way, I’m into it.
My fave? The sealing serum. Multitasks harder than I do.

Comment link below and I’ll send you the link for the Zing and the brush attachment. The Bissell Zing is one of my favourite vacuums that comes in under $100 in both Canada and the US. You cannot beat this price for the suction and power this thing packs. It’s light weight enough to carry around, lift up high (or low) to get into hard to reach places, and the filter is washable, the canister is easy to empty. I pair it with the hair brush (you have to order it separately!) for dusting baseboards, bathrooms, shelves, basically everything. This vacuum is for hard floors only: It does not have a beater bar for carpets. Only downfall it has is that the cord is a little short and the stick floor attachment sometimes falls out so you have to ram it in there. For under $100 you can’t have it all but honestly this is as close as it gets for me.
