Recipes AirfryerAir Fryer Classic Beef Lasagna
A layered beef lasagna with meaty tomato sauce, creamy béchamel and bubbling mozzarella and Parmesan, baked in the air fryer in a small pan. The top turns golden and crisp while the layers stay tender.
It's a great way to enjoy lasagna for two to four without heating a big oven. Let it rest 5 minutes before cutting so the layers set.
