Air fryer cheesecake chimichangas making tips
- Use your favorite pie filling.
- Optional is the cinnamon sugar topping, but it is highly recommended.
- You can try to use special parchment paper air fryer inserts, instead of nonstick spray.
- These are nice, cold, or warm.
- I don’t recommend using corn tortillas for this cheesecake chimichanga recipe.
- Do not pack your air fryer basket. Place much more in at one time because these cook unevenly.
- You can buy premade cheesecake filling instead of homemade, which is sold at grocery stores.
