For the best result, make sure the piadina fits snugly in your air fryer so the air circulates evenly and the edges stay crisp. Drain any soft cheese well to avoid excess moisture, and let the quiche rest for a minute before slicing so the filling sets perfectly. A sprinkle of fresh basil or thyme right before serving adds a final aromatic touch.
