This air fryer book was awesome! It was great to find more keto recipes that worked in my new air fryer. And they turned out great too!

An excellent cookbook for those following keto and have an air fryer. The recipes are only 5 ingredients and super easy to follow for some tasty results. When I got the cookbook, I had just purchased an air fryer so this was a great introduction to it. Now I use it at least twice a week.

The book also includes a simple explanation of the ketogenic diet which is great for newcomers, beginners and advanced ketoers.

Some of my favourite recipes so far are:
Ginger Tumeric Chicken Thighs
Pecan-Crusted Chicken Tenders
Chicken Cordon Bleu
Parmesan Herbed Radishes
Fried Ranch Pickles
Pumpkin Cake
Brownies for Two

There are so many more I'm planning to try but the ones I've loved have been made a few times already.

My husband and son regularly follow a Keto diet and the ideas in this book have been very useful for evenings when we need to rustle up something quick without too much fuss. Using just 5 ingredients and an air fryer I can always find something in this book to make a quick meal.

Everything I have tried so far has been a great success. The dinner rolls in particular are fantastic, I use them often to make burgers which are always a big hit.

Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for an advance copy of this title in exchange for an unbiased review.

This is great for anyone just starting out with their air fryer or need to get some new ideas.

I am no longer doing Keto, just didn't work for me, but love my air fryer.

It is great for weight watchers as well.

Thank you NetGalley for this eARC. First I would like to say that the few images I could see made the recipes even more enticing. We made Bacon wrapped cabbage bites for the holiday weekend and they were divine. We have tried several other recipes and loved them. The fried ranch pickles were a favorite for the whole family. Thank you for making a cookbook for the rest of us who are trying to be healthy and teach our families about the relationship with food. Always a pleasure to have a cookbook with real food and delicious food.

This is a very good cookbook for owners of air fryers who are on the keto diet. It includes many recipes from breakfast to dessert with only a few ingredients. I found the recipes affordable and easily prepared. A few of my favorites included: cheesy pepper eggs, pepperoni rolls,and southern catfish.

Each recipe includes nutrition facts; calories, protein, carbohydrates, net carbs and sodium are all included.

I would highly recommend this cookbook to family and friends!

THANKS to #NetGalley, the author, Sam Dillard, and the publisher for an advanced review copy in exchange for my honest opinion.

I love my air fryer! Especially in the hot summer when I dont want to turn my oven on. Since my parents are on a low carb diet this gave me some great recipes to try when they come over. It has easy to fallow instructions with easy to find ingredients. This is a great book for anyone with an airfryer from advanced cook to a newby.

I really enjoyed this one. I really haven't used my air fryer for much except heating up some frozen food, but found this is a great way to cook pork chops and may never cook pork chops any other way now. Cooking the vegetables in it was good too and a nice option to have. Those on the diet will find some new things to try as well. Definitely try meat in the air fryer!!!

I actually was quite surprised that the recipes I tried not only worked. They worked well. I’m always looking for something new to try. We are trying to be Keto but as with all things it can be challenging. This made our diet feel more normal and utilised a fryer we only ever did carbs in before we saw the light. It’s worth a look even if you like me only ever find one recipe that gets incorporated into your diet. I liked that we had most things already in our food cupboard and it wasn’t hard to do the actual recipes.

Thank you to @NetGalley for ARC. I love this cookbook packed full of keto recipes using items you probably already have at home. The recipes are very easy to make, no long complicated steps using specialty cooking items. Very easy to understand recipes with plenty of color photos included. Great cookbook for those just starting the keto lifestyle or just to add to the keto recipe collection. The cookbook includes recipes for breakfast, appetizers and sides, main dishes and desserts. You will find something for everyone to enjoy!

This is a great cookbook to give along with a new air fryer. Although the recipes are indeed only 5 ingredients, I would usually end up adding some extra things just to make things more robust or to my liking. It’s a great foundation book to build your comfort level and skills with the air fryer and recipe making and tweaking.

Great photography can really make a cookbook! The photos in the "I Love My Air Fryer" Keto Diet cookbook are very captivating. I'm most excited to try out the Keto breakfast ideas. Limiting the number of ingredients really helps with our grocery planning and prep time. This cookbook would make a great gift!

The "I Love My Air Fryer" Keto Diet 5-Ingredient Recipe Book by Sam Dillard is is a cookbook and recipe collection full of keto compliant recipes to try especially developed to utilize everyone's favorite kitchen appliance, the air fryer. Due out 12th May 2020 from Simon & Schuster on their Adams Media imprint, it's 224 pages and will be available in paperback and ebook formats.

The introduction covers the basics of cooking with the air-fryer and essential accessories as well as an intro to the keto lifestyle/diet, including a basic primer on ketosis, macronutrients, tips, ingredients, tools, supplies, how-to. The following chapters include the recipes arranged by category: breakfast, appetizers & snacks, sides, chicken main dishes, beef & pork, fish & seafood, vegetarian, and desserts.

Ingredient measurements are supplied in American standard measurements only. There's a conversion chart for metric measures in the appendices. The nutritional information: fat, carbs, protein, fiber content, etc are listed for the recipes as well as serving sizes. Extra tips or recipe alternatives are listed in the recipes. The recipes themselves are fairly straightforward and are made for the most part with easily sourced ingredients (not all though, sweeteners for example, will likely need to be sourced from specialists). Many are very simple, none of them are overly complex.

The photography is not abundant; most of the recipes are not illustrated, but the photographs which are included are clear and well done. I wish there had been more photographs and serving suggestions, but I do understand that extra photography increases the price of book projects very quickly and the lack is not crippling because this is a fairly simple recipe collection.

This is a huge collection of recipes and even allowing for the fact that some of them are very similar to others in the same category, this will keep keto-cooks going for ages. Many of these can also easily be adapted to non-keto cooking.

Four stars.

A wonderful collection of recipes that are simple to prepare and specific to using your Air Fryer. I bought an Air Fryer about a year ago and have loved it so far but have not liked that my old cookbooks are not made for its use. So I was relying on some online sources and a lot of trial and error. This book offers a lot of straight forward recipe ideas that can all be used in the Air Fryer. The added benefit is that they are also specific to a keto diet. The recipes choose ingredients that are generally easy to obtain in all the meal categories and are tasty as well. The added bonus is the recipes that are specifically "kid friendly". I appreciate this as many cookbooks are great for an adult palate but not necessarily approved by children.
Highly recommended. Thank you for the early copy.

We don't eat Keto but my relatives do and honestly it had been hard to cook for them. They have an air-fryer and I cannot wait to add this book to their repertoire. The recipes are easy to make, tasty, and the timing works in our air-fryer. The pickle brined fried chicken was so good. I had never thought about breading using pork rinds. I learned a lot in this actually. There are a LOT of recipes. With being stuck at home, a lot of the time I didn't want to cook, but this made it easy to throw something together that was tasty. I'm sure if you eat Keto all the time, this would be a great book to have on hand for quick and easy dinners. Even if you don't eat keto there are a lot of delicious recipes and you never know when you are going to get the Keto curveball thrown at you. Being able to pull this out and whip something up with very little cleanup is a win in my book.

I really loved the variety of recipes that were provided in this book. There was a huge selection of basically every type of meal or protein. My one critique is that a lot of the recipes used erythritol as a sweetner. I would have liked to see alternative sweetening methods as this sweetner has been known to cause issues with digestion. But overall, I really loved the amount of recipes in this book.

Love it! I appreciate how simple the recipes are. I don’t have the time or energy to get a lot of complicated ingredients. So this is refreshing.

I've never though how many different recipes I could make using my AirFryer! This book has lots of easy and quick Keto recipes and I'm in love with it! Definitely trying some of them this week. It shows that Keto doesn't have to be boring. Can't wait to try these recipes. There are recipes for breakfast, sides, main dishes (chicken, beef, pork, seafood) and desserts! Yum!

I got an advance reader's copy of this book complimentary from NetGallery in exchange of my honest review.
