Air Fryer Halloumi Slices Time & Temp Guide

By Airfryer Conversion Chart Culinary Team • Reviewed on 2025-08-16

Air fryer halloumi slices come out golden and perfectly chewy without needing a frying pan.

In our testing, plain slices browned at 7–9 minutes at 375°F (190°C), while sticks and seasoned batches needed 8–12 minutes depending on cut thickness.

To prevent rubbery texture, avoid overcooking — halloumi continues to firm up slightly as it cools.

Pro tip: Serve with lemon wedges or drizzle with honey for a sweet-savory pairing.
