Step-by-Step Instructions for Air Fryer Muffins
Step 1: Preheat the Air Fryer
Preheat your air fryer to 320°F (160°C) for 3-5 minutes. Preheating ensures even cooking and consistent results.
Step 2: Prepare the Muffin Batter
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- In a separate bowl, mix the egg, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the muffins light and fluffy.
- If using add-ins, fold them into the batter at this stage.
Step 3: Prepare Muffin Cups
Use silicone muffin cups or line paper muffin cups with a bit of oil spray to prevent sticking. Fill each cup about two-thirds full with the batter to allow room for rising.
Step 4: Arrange in the Air Fryer
Place the muffin cups into the air fryer basket, ensuring they are spaced apart to allow air circulation. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to bake in batches.
Step 5: Bake
Bake the muffins at 320°F (160°C) for 12-15 minutes. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of a muffin. If it comes out clean, they’re ready.
Step 6: Cool and Enjoy
Carefully remove the muffins from the air fryer and let them cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
