Best Air Fryer Accessories for Meal Prep UK
Air fryers are already useful for meal prep, but the right accessories make them easier to repeat. Liners reduce cleanup, racks add surface area and small pans let you prep eggs, oats-style bakes or sides without using the main basket directly.

See Amazon price →Which Accessory Should You Buy First?
Start with reusable liners if cleaning is the reason you avoid the air fryer. They are especially useful for marinated chicken, salmon, potatoes and vegetables with seasoning.
Move to racks, skewers and pans if you already use the air fryer often and want more batch-cooking options. Buying a kit before the habit exists can just create drawer clutter.
Check Size Before Anything Else
Air fryer accessories are not universal. Round, square, single-basket and dual-drawer models vary, and a liner that almost fits can block airflow or stop the drawer closing.
Measure the internal basket, not only the advertised litre capacity. For dual-drawer models, check each drawer separately.
Liners And Crisping
Silicone liners reduce mess, but they can change airflow if overloaded. Leave space around food, shake or turn halfway through cooking and do not cover every vent or raised section.
For crispy potatoes or chicken, the liner helps cleanup but the technique still matters: dry the food, use moderate oil and avoid crowding the basket.
Air Fryer Accessory Verdict
Buy liners first for easier repeat cooking. Add racks and pans only once you know the air fryer is part of your weekly meal prep routine.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are silicone air fryer liners worth it?
They are worth it if cleanup stops you using the air fryer regularly. They are less important for dry foods that barely leave residue.
Do air fryer liners stop food getting crispy?
They can reduce airflow if overcrowded. Use the right size, avoid blocking vents and shake or turn food during cooking.
Do air fryer accessories fit every model?
No. Measure the internal basket or drawer and check the listing against your model before buying.
