But today is all about frozen pierogies in the air fryer.
I first heard of pierogies when Poland joined the EU. Just like we moved to Portugal from England for better opportunities, a couple of decades ago many Polish people moved to England for the same reason.
Up until that point I had never tried any Eastern European food and OMG it was delicious.
I remember how excited I would get when another Polish supermarket opened, and it was like a treasure trove learning lots of new food.
But out of all the Eastern European food I tried when in England it was the pierogies that stood out from the crowd.
However, they never tasted as good when you heated them at home compared to a Polish café and that is why pierogies were meant to be air fried.

Can You Air Fry Pierogies?
Yes, you sure can air fry pierogies. Whether that is fresh pierogies that you have just made yourself, or frozen ones such as Mrs T’s pierogies, they are all ideal for cooking in the air fryer.
Can You Air Fry Frozen Pierogies?
Absolutely! Not only can you air fry frozen pierogies but they cook much better than other methods. You see the traditional and popular method for cooking pierogies is to parboil them.
You need to parboil your pierogies to an exact time and often your frozen pierogies will come out soggy and taste rather awful.
But forget the method of parboiling when it comes to air fryer pierogies. Instead they are tossed in extra virgin olive oil and come out crispy and yummy and don’t have a rubbery of soggy texture.
Can You Cook Frozen Pierogies In A Ninja Foodi?
Yes, you can make frozen pierogies in the Ninja Foodi or the Ninja Air Fryer, simply use the air fryer function and then you can follow this recipe exactly the same.
That’s what I love about the Ninja Foodi air fryer, that its very easy to follow all air fryer recipes using it.
Best Way To Cook Mrs T’s Pierogies
Over the years, we have used a lot of different methods to cook Mrs T’s pierogies and have found that the air fryer is by far, the best method.
The air fryer does a fantastic job of heating them up fast without needing to preheat. The air fryer also stops the pierogi from getting dry and drying out and I just love how fast and hassle free they are.

It seems i have been cooking my frozen pierogies all wrong. Can’t believe how good they are in the air fryer.
i could see this happening soon…. netflix marathons….girls nights in and lazy afternoons.
Wanted to download your Air fryer Minicourse but couldnt find the place to put my email.

I love the addition of olive oil, and I already can see that we will be eating pierogies in the air fryer many, many times this summer…plus tonight!
I love pierogies! But not yet tried them in the air fryer. Thanks for sharing.
No one needed a 20 page prologue to a 2 step recipe for heating up some frozen pierogies a simple cook time and temperature would do. Now I’ve got to spend the time to come down here to comment just to tell you how stupid this page this.
Hi Sondra,
Thanks for your comment, but we really didn´t need it.
Please can you do me a huge favor and load up the post again and at the top of the page you will see Jump To Recipe, when pushed this takes you straight to the recipe and gives you what you want, then if you had pushed the button you would`nt need to leave a comment and you can go on your way really happy with yourself, if only you had read the intro properly 🙂
Sondra sounds like she’s a lot of fun at parties…
Some people are jerks, I like the recipe, thank you!
What temp for the air fryer?
Hi Holly,
Cook for 5 minutes at 170c/340f, hope this helps 🙂
I am going to try this tonight. I thought the recipe says “Cook for 5 minutes at 170c/340f” shake, and cook for 5 minutes more.
Is it a total of 5 minutes to cook, or 10?
Thanks.
Hi Paul,
It is 10 minutes ????
Came out perfect!
Really glad the recipe worked out for you Natalie 🙂
Will be making these tonight for the first time 😃 they’re BOGO at my workplace right now, perfect timing!
Hi Jenny,
Hope you liked your pierogies 🙂
OMG. These are amazing. My air fryer and I both thank you
Anne
Thank you very much Anne, frozen food in the air fryer is the best 🙂
3 stars because I can still eat them but I won’t be making these this way again. I get its a healthier option, but ill stick with frying them from frozen in a pan of butter lol its a better flavor profile that way.
Can I cook these at 400° the whole time or only to make this crisper?
Hi Sarah,
We recommend not to cook at 400 as in our opinion they would not be cooked in the middle, we like to cook mostly on 180c/360f as then the food cooks in the middle and not just on the outside 🙂
Is there a good sauce for these?
Hi Jerald,
Here are a few sauces on our blog that might go well with your pierogies:

Hope you find these helpful 🙂
Perfection! The directions led to a fully cooked, crispy pierogi. I usually boil then pan fry in butter and onions; the air fryer saved me so many steps and clean up was easy since I used a liner. Thank you for sharing.
