FAQ ❓

How long can I keep air fryer confit cherry tomatoes?

For up to 3 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Which cherry tomatoes should I use for confit?

We recommend choosing firm cherry tomatoes.

What can I use instead of oregano?

Air fryer confit cherry tomatoes can also be made with thyme. If you prefer, you can use both herbs.

Can I use brown sugar to make confit cherry tomatoes?

Yes, of course.

Can I make confit cherry tomatoes in the oven?

Of course. If you don't have an air fryer, you can use the oven instead, but the cooking time will be longer. If you like them well caramelized, we recommend baking them at 300°F (150°C) for 2 hours (keep an eye on them, as ovens can vary).
