The process of cooking a frozen, small, round pizza snack produced by Totino’s within a countertop convection oven, commonly known as an air fryer, yields a quicker and potentially crispier result compared to traditional oven baking. The appliance circulates hot air rapidly, simulating the effects of deep frying without submerging the food in oil. As an example, individuals seeking a fast and simple snack preparation method may choose this approach.
Employing this cooking technique offers several advantages. It reduces preheating time significantly, providing a faster meal solution for individuals with time constraints. Furthermore, the circulating hot air promotes even cooking and a desirable texture. Historically, convection ovens were primarily used in commercial kitchens; their compact, consumer-grade counterparts now offer a convenient alternative to conventional ovens for smaller food items.
