A FOODIE has shared her verdict on the viral air fryer pancakes – and it's safe to say, you're better off cooking them the regular way.
Mum-of-two Kourtney Rumbel, from Australia, came across the recipe on TikTok and was so impressed with the results, she decided to try it too.
Armed with a camera, the Aussie, who posts under the username @kourtneyrumbel, filmed the process – and here's how it went.
''So after watching the Air Fryer Guy do his fake pancake in the air fryer, I decided I had to give it a go myself.''
According to the foodie, you need to make your pancake batter as normal before pouring it in three pie dishes.
To cook these, she lined the kitchen appliance with a bit of foil and placed the pie dishes on top of one another, whilst ensuring there was a baking sheet inbetween.

''Not horrible, but classicly cooked pancakes are better [sic].

''They look dry.''
Someone else had the same experience with the viral recipe, writing: ''I tried his you are definitely right. I did the same just a few minutes ago and then came here & found your video.
''Works better as individual cakes.''
''better then mine lol mine turned into 1 big not cooked blob of mixture,'' another added.
''the final result is just a pile of goo,'' a food fan would certainly not be giving this recipe a go any time soon.
However, one air fryer recipe to try out this weekend is the viral Nutella French toast.
The step-by-step recipe was shared by Laura – better known as Air Fry With Laura on TikTok – and it's bound to become a staple in your household.
The first step, the foodie demonstrated in her video, is taking a few slices of bread and using a rolling pin to flatten them a little.
Then grab a generous dollop of Nutella and spread it evenly across the bread before rolling it.
The whizz then dipped it in an egg mixture – but don't let it sit there for too long, otherwise the bread will get too soggy.
Place the Nutella rolls in your air fryer for 200C for just four minutes – and voila, your easy snack is all done.
If you're feeling extra fancy, sprinkle some sugar on top and add fresh strawberries to the plate too.
The simple recipe has certainly gone down a treat on social media, racking up over a whopping 1.3million views.
Fellow food fans raced to comments,, leaving hundreds of positive reviews, such as this one: ''I did this immediately after watching the video and it was the best thing ever.''
Someone else shared a tip to upgrade the dish even more: ''A sprinkle of cinnamon on top.''
