Muffins in air fryer are a fast, easy, and delicious treat! They come out soft and fluffy with a light golden-brown exterior. Perfect for breakfast, a snack, or dessert, these muffins can be made in a fraction of the time compared to traditional baking methods. The airfryer cooks them evenly, giving you moist muffins with a slightly crisp top.
Making muffins in air fryer is a great alternative to traditional oven baking because it saves time and ensures even cooking. The airfryer heats up quickly, and muffins bake in just a few minutes. You don’t need to wait for the oven to preheat, making it an ideal choice for small batches or when you’re short on time.
Prepare the batter
In a bowl, mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and any desired spices. In another bowl, combine milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Gradually combine the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients until smooth.
Fill the muffin liners
Line silicone or paper cupcake molds with liners and fill them about 2/3 full with batter to allow room for rising.
Bake in the airfryer
Preheat the airfryer to 160°C (320°F). Place the muffin liners in the airfryer basket, ensuring space between them. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool and serve
Remove the muffins from the airfryer and let them cool before serving. Enjoy as is, or top with icing or chocolate chips for extra indulgence!
For extra fluffiness, be sure not to overmix the batter. If using frozen fruit or chocolate chips, gently fold them into the batter to avoid crushing them. For a healthier option, you can replace some of the butter with yogurt or applesauce.
