Airfryer to make soup

Thomas_Holding · 2026-03-25T10:24:18+00:00

My domestic purchasing manager wants me to buy an air fryer which also makes soup - do they exist?

If so can anyone please recommend one?

Thanks in advance.

You can get multi function appliances that will air fry and allow you to cook stews/soups etc (look at the ninja foodi max for example), but as far as Im aware they won't have a blender function so youll need to do that bit yourself with a stick blender or similar.

That's just silly.

An air fryer is a small fan oven.

A soup maker is a food processor/blender with a heating element.

You could use the AF to roast veg (or I guess meat) for subsequent soup making but that's not what was asked for.

Surely your manager wants one that REHEATS soup, and you have misunderstood?

It's not that silly - multi function appliances will do air frying, and also everything for soup except the blending, which you can easily do with a stick blender.
