Ingredients

1 bag frozen potstickers
olive oil spray optional for standard method

Instructions

Super easy method:

Start by adding your potstickers directly to the bottom of the air fryer basket in a single layer. Allow space in between to ensure even cooking.
Air fry potstickers for 12-14 minutes at 400°F, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy. No need to preheat the air fryer beforehand.
If making multiple batches, check a few minutes early since you'll be using a warmed up air fryer for subsequent batches.
That's it! These uncomplicated crispy dumplings are a breeze to make!
Some potstickers may dry and split open, revealing the filling. If you don't mind that and just want a quick and tasty snack, this option is for you!
If you care about presentation, read on for the standard method.

Standard method:

Lightly spray the bottom of your air fryer basket with a little oil, then place the potstickers in it evenly spaced out.
Thoroughly spray each potsticker with the oil to prevent them from drying out and splitting open. This will also help achieve a richer golden color.
Air fryer at 375°F for about 10 minutes, flipping halfway through until golden brown.
If making subsequent batches, check on them a minute or two early as they'll be done faster in a preheated air fryer.

Notes

Leftovers: Store leftover potstickers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a few days.

Reheating: Reheat in the air fryer for a few minutes until heated through.
