Thanksgiving can be stressful, especially if it’s your first time making the meal for your family.

We’ve rounded up our top air fryer recipes that we think should be incorporated into your turkey-day menu. And, if you don't have an air fryer yet—don't worry! We tested a bunch to help you decide which is right for you. You won’t have to worry about a tedious oven schedule again. Don't believe us? Try this easy turkey recipe.

Even though you’re making in it a modern air fryer, this stuffing will taste just like the classic you grew up on.
