For this Ninja Crispi recipe, I went for a seasonal classic: roasted chestnuts. I usually enjoy them during Christmas vacations, bought hot from open markets, their warm paper cones and that unmistakable winter smell in the air. I don’t normally make chestnuts at home, but I was curious to try them in the Ninja Crispi.
And it felt a little magical. The chestnuts come out tender and perfectly roasted — no ashes, no smoke, just clean, comforting warmth. A small winter pleasure you can now enjoy anytime, not only during the holidays.

Ingredients
Fresh chestnuts
Instructions
- (Optional) Soak the chestnuts in warm salty water for about 20–30 minutes, then drain well. This helps them cook evenly and stay moist inside.
- Wash the chestnuts and cut a deep cross on the flat side of each one.
- Preheat the Ninja Crispi on Air flry mode at 200 °C (390 °F).
- Place the chestnuts in the basket in a single layer.
- Cook for 15–18 minutes, shaking the basket once halfway. If your chestnuts are very large, they may need 2–3 extra minutes.
- Wrap the hot chestnuts in a clean kitchen towel for 5 minutes.
- Peel while still warm — both the hard shell and inner skin will come off much more easily.
