Cooking Tips

The Omni Toaster Oven cooks all your favorite fresh and frozen oven-baked and air fried snacks—fast!

  • Use the Smart Programs as a starting point and experiment with cooking times and temperatures to get the results you prefer.
  • Rotisserie-cooked foods and rotisserie accessories and foods must be placed in the oven before touching Start.
  • With the exception of rotisserie-cooked foods, most foods will benefit greatly from a preheated oven.
  • When cooking coated food items, choose breadcrumb batters over liquid-based batters to ensure that the batter will stick to the food.
  • Flip or rotate food items when the display indicates turn Food to ensure they are evenly cooked on both sides.
  • For crispy, golden fries, soak fresh potato sticks in ice water for 15 minutes, pat dry and spray lightly with cooking oil before inserting them into the oven.
  • When baking a cake, pie, quiche, or any food with filling or batter, use an oven-safe baking dish and cover the food with foil or an oven-safe lid to prevent the top from overcooking.
  • Air frying can cause oil and fat to drip from foods. To prevent excess smoke, carefully remove and empty the cooking pan periodically throughout cooking.
  • To ensure seasoning adheres to food items, spray food items with cooking oil before adding seasoning.
  • Feel free to use any oven-safe cookware in your Omni Toaster Oven.
