This collection of the best vegan air fryer recipes is sure to help broaden your vegan diet with healthy, plant-based, air fryer meals.
What Is A Vegan?
Being vegan is a lifestyle. It isn’t just about what you eat, although food choices are a huge part of the lifestyle. Vegans have nothing animal based in their day to day living. Skin care products must be vegan and never tested on animals, food choices are only those that are grown and come from the ground, a plant, tree or bush. Typically, all choices are made with environmental impact in mind.
What Is A Vegan Diet?
A vegan diet avoids anything animal based. So obviously, vegans don’t eat meat. But it doesn’t stop there. A vegan also avoids eggs, dairy and honey (which comes from living creatures). Anything that an animal produces is avoided. This can also include a raw diet in which only raw foods are eaten. But raw food is not a requirement of a vegan diet plan.
Vegan Vs. Vegetarian
Vegetarians avoid all meat, but still partake in foods that come from animals. So milk, eggs and honey are all fine on a vegetarian diet. The only thing absents is meat. It’s an easier way to get protein in the traditional sense. But vegan diets can also be very high in protein if done correctly.
Best Air Fryers For Vegan Recipes
For a vegan diet, you don’t have to worry too much about getting an air fryer with extra bells and whistles. You’ll never need a rotisserie function, for example.
For the most part, basket air fryers are great for a vegan diet. But a toaster oven air fryer can also work well here.
Since the majority of what you’ll be making in an air fryer are vegetables, it’s helpful to have a basket air fryer for easy tossing. Here are the ones we recommend.
