Energy experts compared the cost of using ovens, hobs, microwaves, air fryers and slow cookers
Experts have shared how much it would cost to cook Christmas dinner using different appliances, including an oven, an air fryer and a slow cooker.
People are turning away from traditional cooking methods as they try to save energy, with the proportion of households using the oven this year falling four percent, according to Uswitch data. Those using the hob and microwave are down six percent. People believed that the full festive feast would add about £15 to their energy bills, yet it is actually about £3.60 according to the experts.
With so many ingredients in a Christmas dinner, it’s the one time the whole oven is being used, making it more energy-efficient.
