Welcome to air fryer frozen hot pockets. The latest addition to our air fryer frozen food recipe collection here at Recipe This.
If you have not tried them yet I recommend you try some of our reader favourite air fryer frozen foods.
Our readers love our air fryer frozen egg rolls, air fryer frozen chicken nuggets, air fryer frozen French fries and air fryer chicken wings.
But today is all about frozen hot pockets in the air fryer, or as you might call them air fryer frozen pizza pockets.
I would call them frozen pizza pockets, just because they are like a delicious pocket of your favourite pizza fillings.
A delicious quicker alternative to making yourself a calzone or a stromboli. Wait until Nestle has their hot pockets on deals in the grocery store and bulk buy them.
Load hot pockets into your freezer and then you have a bulk supply of pizza for whenever you want a quick snack in the air fryer.
But what I hate about snacks like hot pockets, is that the focus has always been on the microwave, when the air fryer can do a much better job.
Why You Should Air Fry Frozen Hot Pockets
The microwave and the oven of course can cook frozen hot pockets, but the problem is that they don’t crisp your food unless you cook it in a river of fat.
But if you use the air fryer for hot pockets you need hardly any oil and they are as crispy as deep fried hot pockets.
You can also cook hot pockets from frozen in the air fryer.

If you are wondering what air fryer hot pocket is like, then think of a few similar sized air fryer foods that you like to cook from frozen.
Such as air fryer sausage rolls, air fryer frozen burritos or air fryer pop tarts and you can expect something similar. The pastry or wrap will be the best crispiest pastry taste you have ever tried.
You would think that you had bought pastry in France for how good the coating of your air fryer hot pocket is.

How Long Do You Cook A Hot Pocket For?
