Exciting news! Instant Brands has just released their Instant Pot Air Fryer Lid, which turns many 6 quart Instant Pots into an air fryer!
The Instant Pot Air Fryer Lid seems to function very similar to the lid that comes with the Instant Pot DUO Crisp Air Fryer Pressure Cooker, except that you will have to plug this lid into a wall outlet.

Roast a whole chicken using the Instant Pot Air Fryer Lid, or first pressure cook the chicken and then use the lid to make the skin perfectly crispy.

Use the Instant Pot Air Fryer Lid to make Air Fryer Rib Eye Steak with Blue Cheese Butter or Air Fryer Buffalo Chicken Wings the same way you would using a regular stand alone air fryer like the Ultrean 8.5 Quart Air Fryer. The basket is very deep, so you can cook for your whole family.

The Instant Pot Pressure Cooker Lid fits nicely on all 6 quart pressure cookers. So, if you are making my fully loaded Instant Pot Macaroni and Cheese, first use the pressure cooker for the macaroni and then switch to the air frying lid to brown the Crispy Bacon Garlic Breadcrumb Topping right in your 6 quart Instant Pot.
My Instant Pot Poor Man’s Burnt Ends is a perfect example of how to cook very tough meat quickly and then caramelize the meat with the crisping lid.
Besides the air fryer lid, you get a protective pad to place the hot Instant Pot Air Fryer Lid after using so you don’t damage your counters. When cooled, it acts as a storage cover.
You get a multi-level air fryer basket, so you can cook large amounts of food at once.
A dehydrating and broiling tray is great for making treats like fruit roll ups and to quickly toast a bagel or make my easy Air Fryer 6 Minute Pita Bread Cheese Pizza.

I was wondering, do you put the basket in the aluminum pot, with or without the basket stand?
Jill Selkowitz says
It can be done either way, depending on how far you want the heating element to the food. Jill
