Instructions
Preheat air fryer at 400 for 5 minutes.
Fold 4 paper towels in half. Run under warm water until soaked. Squeeze most of liquid out but leave quite wet. Lay on a plate.
Put up to 10 frozen pierogies in middle and fold over the top. Use your hand to put a little bit more water on top of paper towels that are overlapped over the top.
Put into microwave for 2.5 minutes so the middles have softened.
Open air fryer basket and spray inside with olive oil spray.
Put pierogies into basket without overlapping them. Spray tops liberally with olive oil spray and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Close and cook for total of 4 minutes.
Open and flip over after 2 minutes. Spray tops now with olive oil spray again and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Cook for another 2-3 minutes or until they're as golden brown as you'd like.
