Best Ninja Foodi accessories to have for your new air fryer pressure cooker machine so you can make just about everything for breakfast, lunch and dinner!
Did you just get your new Ninja Foodi and you’re loving it??!! Us too!! Now we’re here to share a few Ninja Foodi accessories so you can make more than just air fryer and pressure cooker recipes using the pot and trivet it came with. (affiliate links present)
** Join my Easy Ninja Foodi Recipes Group if you love your Ninja! Let’s share our recipes. **
- Let’s start with the obvious, you NEED a Ninja Foodi air fryer and pressure cooker machine like now!
- Once you have it all unpacked you’ll need some easy Ninja Foodi recipes too.
- Grab a free cookbook here.
Here’s the top 10 Ninja Foodi accessories you should grab:
- I use this Ninja Foodi egg mold all the time!
- Having a vegetable steamer is a must for vegetables and making hard boiled eggs so they stay in place.
- Using a pressure cooker bundt pan is great when you’re baking in your Ninja Foodi. See our cake below??!!
- Making dishes like scalloped potatoes or baking cakes I use this springform pan
- The cheapest item that should be #1 on you list of Ninja Foodi accessories is this trivet with handles
- If you want an extra I like this package that includes an air fryer rack and pizza pan so you can make bacon easily and Ninja Foodi pizza is always fun!
Once you have these basic Ninja Foodi accessories the possibilities are endless!
- The least expensive and favorite Ninja Foodi accessory I use all the time is this (seen below) trivet with handles
- I like it the best because it is small without any pieces sticking up on the sides. This allows me to put a larger pan/pot on top and it will sit flat.
- You can also fold the handles in so the trivet is completely flat. This allows you to put an even larger pan/pot on top without it impeding the size on the sides.
- These pressure cooker stackable pans aren’t a must either but I’ve used them to make pressure cooker fish with vegetables at the same time.
These first few Ninja Foodi accessories I’m talking about are primarily for making pressure cooker recipes or “baking” in your new machine. I will speak briefly in a bit regarding the best air fryer accessories as well.
Here is one of my favorite things to use in my pressure cooker!!
I will share a few recipes I’ve created using this little blue guy, it’s not just for eggs as it states in it’s description believe me.
- Now if you’re wondering what you would use a Ninja Foodi egg mold for other than egg bites, let me tell you the possibilities are endless!
- I have made pressure cooker churro bites in them which are great for breakfast or dessert
- These pressure cooker muffins were made one morning and the kids loved them
- Pressure cooker pancakes are so fun and great for on the go mornings
- And of course pressure cooker egg bites can be made and taste similar to Starbucks sous vide eggs
- If you want to something like a Ninja Foodi cake you’ll need a pressure cooker bundt pan. A springform pan is nice too.
- I have this pretty springform pan on order
As for Ninja Foodi air fryer accessories these are the ones I recommend and have used.
- I actually really like the air fryer basket it comes with so there’s no need to buy an extra accessory as far as that is concerned.
- I’ve used it for many things like
- Ninja Foodi french fries
- these air fryer breakfast stuffed peppers
- and Ninja Foodi kale chips were a real hit
- The trivet it comes with works ok for some things like Ninja Foodi baked potatoes if turned upside down. But for anything larger I suggest getting the trivet with handles I mention below.
- I’ve used it for many things like
- Not a necessity but I love this air fryer rack and pizza pan as it’s great for air fryer bacon as well as the kids love air fryer pizza for dinner.
As for other accessories I have tried there have been a few that were okay but I didn’t use them often enough to recommend you spending your money on them. Yes you can buy an egg rack but if you just use this pressure cooker vegetable steamer then you’re set for both veggies and laying eggs in it.

Question about making yogurt in the Foodi 8 QT. Mine does not have a yogurt setting but I can set and maintain the temp down to 105′. I was under the impression yogurt is made using a temp near 115′ and people used hot pads and the like in the past. So why is this Foodi not able to make yogurt. I must be missing something so your help would be great. I did not see anything in the Foodi book about yogurt, what am I missing? Yes I too got mine during the Amazon Black Friday but assumed that was why it was on sale and the yogurt function was not offered. It’s been close to 30 years since I made yogurt, that was a one time affair and it was a hassle then. I would like to try again. Thanks for your help.

If you have a Kindle it is free.
Mike says
You can download the Kindle app to your phone or computer:) You don’t have to own a Kindle, though I do, and LOVE it!!
Gingi says
Amazon has a very large assortment of accessories for the Ninja Foodi and at reasonable prices…Check it out by typing in search…Ninja Foodi Accessories…
Maria says
Can I use accessories that don’t say ninja foodie brand I want to use what I have from instapot
The Typical Mom says
Absolutely. Use pressure cooker accessories.
Gingi says
Most pressure cooker accessories can be easily used in the Ninja Foodi as well as pressure cooker recipes. Be aware that some items that fit an 8 qt pot will not fit into a 6 qt pot…And those items that fit a 6 qt pot will definitely fit an 8qt pot!
Sherry says
Do you use all these accessories in the 6.5 qt. Ninja Foodi? That’s what I have and just want to make sure they are ok to use. The user manual tells you not to use any accessories that don’t come from Ninja.
The Typical Mom says
Yes that is the size I have.
Gingi says
Every manufacturer wants to sell more of their own items or those that carry their approval; But as long as they are stainless steel, silicone or perhaps bamboo, and fit your particular pot…don’t worry and enjoy them and your Ninja Foodi! Ninja only makes about 5 or 6 accessories and the dehydrator rack only fits an 8 qt pot and theirs is not made well with too many dents during shipping, use and storing. I bought mine on Amazon made by Goldlionhome for $32 which is the best of all currently for sale anywhere! Shipping is free and not more than 2 days from purchase date! Ninja uses much thinner material that can’t help but bend. Good luck!
Gingi says
Ninja company wrote the user manual so what would you expect them to say? Naturally they want you to buy their accessories; Not someone else’s!
It’s all about money and not about you or me…The consumer! Ninja sells thousands and thousands of Foodi pressure cookers to QVC and they had a pre Black Friday sale on their 8qt XL Ninja Foodi for $199.00 which I bought for 6 Easy Pay, Free Shipping. I thought I hit the jackpot when after Delivery, I noticed that it didn’t have the Yogurt function? Actually…Out of the 5 great colors…only the Black and White ( my choice) and the Cinnamon didn’t have the yogurt function yet they were all sold together without a mention or disclaimer of this fact which caused so many returns from too many buyers! I’m returning mine for that reason plus the fact that the pressure cooker portion of my Foodi never released steam, the red button never pops up and the condensation cup always remained dry…Plus my food remained soggy and under cooked? I know how to pressure cook. The Ninja is not my first pressure cooker as I’m sure most women today are experienced pusing a pressure cooker. I got the Bed Bath and Beyond Black Friday special for the newest deluxe Ninja Foodi regularly $279.00 for the same exact price of $199.00 and continue to wonder what both, Ninja and QVC are negotiating and hiding from their buying public re: their illegal Bait And Switch tactics re: QVC selling their product as they do? I did call Ninja customer service and asked about this matter to which they told me to ask QVC when QVC told me to ask Ninja??? Today all consumers must be smart shoppers and research every important purchase no matter the brand name item or enticing advertisement! And too…to make purchases from a local store where you can see the item and learn how it functions before you buy ! Good luck and enjoy your Foodi.

Lmartin says
Too many ads
Heather says
I suspect the comment above is the Ninja multipurpose pan
https://www.ninjakitchen.com/parts/0/all/1062/multi-purpose-pan/?pa=true
But it does not appear to fit the foodie.
The Typical Mom says
Hard to say but Foodi is not listed.
Steve Christian says
Multi purpose pan and extra seal rings
The Typical Mom says
I haven’t had to replace my seal ring on any pressure cooker I own but I can imagine over time you’d need one yes. What do you mean by multi purpose pan?
