Product Information
Full details
The Rectangle Air Fryer Silicone Baking Basket Reusable Liner is an essential tool for home cooks who frequently use air fryers and want to simplify cleanup while protecting their appliance basket. Designed for efficiency, this food-grade silicone liner prevents food from sticking and burning, effectively replacing disposable parchment paper; however, users should be aware that the raised base may slightly alter air circulation compared to cooking directly on the metal grate.

FAQs
Is this liner safe for oven use?
Yes, it is heat resistant up to 220 Celsius, making it suitable for standard oven use within that temperature limit.
Do I need to grease the silicone liner before use?
No, the surface is naturally non-stick and does not require additional oil or cooking spray.
Will the liner melt if it touches the heating element?
You must avoid direct contact with the heating element. Ensure the liner stays inside the basket and does not fold over the edges.
Can I use metal utensils with this liner?
It is recommended to use silicone or wooden utensils to avoid scratching or puncturing the silicone surface.
Does the blue color fade over time?
While the color is durable, exposure to very high temperatures over many cycles may lead to minor cosmetic fading, which does not affect performance.
Troubleshooting
Food is not crisping correctly
Ensure the food is not piled too high and that there is space for air to circulate. Try increasing the cook time by 2-3 minutes.
Stubborn grease buildup on the liner
Soak the liner in hot, soapy water for 10 minutes before scrubbing with a soft sponge to loosen the residue.
Liner smells like previous food
Soak the liner in a mixture of baking soda and warm water for 30 minutes to neutralize lingering odors.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Environmentally friendly alternative to disposable paper liners
- Protects the air fryer basket from grease and stuck-on food
- Easy to clean and dishwasher safe
- Heat resistant up to 220 Celsius

Cons
- May require a longer cook time due to the thickness of the silicone
- Raised base might slightly inhibit total airflow compared to the original wire rack

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your liner, simply ensure it is clean and dry before inserting it into your rectangle-shaped air fryer basket. Ensure the dimensions match your appliance basket before the first use.
For ongoing care, wash the liner with warm, soapy water after every use. While it is dishwasher safe, hand washing is recommended to prolong the material's lifespan and ensure all crevices are clear of grease. Always allow the liner to cool completely before removing it from the air fryer to prevent potential burns, as silicone retains heat for several minutes after the cooking cycle ends.
