Broilers expose food to intense, direct radiant heat.
That can be dramatically different from ordinary baking.
Even if your parchment paper is rated for 450°F, that doesn’t mean it’s appropriate
is especially important.
The powerful circulating air can lift a loose sheet of parchment toward the heating element.

If you’re using parchment in an air fryer, it should generally be held down by food, and you should follow both the parchment manufacturer’s instructions and your air fryer’s guidance.
Some parchment products are specifically designed as perforated air-fryer liners.
Those may be a better choice than cutting a large, solid sheet yourself.

That makes placement especially important.
Never allow parchment paper to touch a heating element, interior wall, or open flame.
