Lower heat to 300 degrees Fahrenheit. Place basket back in air fryer for 5 minutes or until done.
Finally, carefully remove from air fryer. Shred spaghetti squash into spaghetti strands using two forks. Discard of skin and serve!
If you have trouble slicing your spaghetti squash in half, place it on a plate and microwave it for 2 to 3 minutes to soften it.
