How to Cook a Frozen Turkey or Chicken Pot Pie in the Air Fryer

What You’ll Need

• Your favorite brand of frozen pot pie. I used 2 small frozen turkey pot pies, but if you wanted to use a frozen chicken pot pie, that works, too. You do you!
• An Air fryer. In these photos, we’ve used the COSORI Air Fryer 1500W air fryer. I also have a convection toaster oven with air fryer function, similar to this Cuisinart (mine is a Breville, but the model doesn’t seem to be available right now). Any type of air fryer should work for this method, so don’t overthink it!

Method

• Preheat your Air fryer to 400°F. Even if you have an air fryer that says it doesn’t need to pre-heat, I still strongly recommend you pre-heat. That will ensure your frozen chicken pot pie or turkey pot pie cooks evenly throughout.
• Place your pot pie into the air fryer.

• Air fry for 15 minutes or until bubbling.
• I used the tiny pot pies and 15 minutes was perfect, but for a larger, family sized pot pie you might need up to 20 minutes.

Final Thoughts

I hope this method works for you. It’s now my go to on a cold winter night!
