Air Fryer Muffins

Make beautifully golden brown muffins in your air fryer in no time. Add blueberries, chocolate chips or dried fruit, whatever you like. You can even double the mixture to make more

When it's a hot day I hate having my oven on and this is when I say thank Goodness for my Airfryer. Very little heat comes from it.

  • Prep:10 mins Cook:15 mins
    Serves 6 - 8

See below for normal oven temperature and time

INGREDIENTS
  • 60ml vegetable oil
  • 4 tablespoons Greek Yoghurt
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tbsp milk
  • 5 tablespoons caster sugar Ive also used brown sugar
  • 3/4 cups self raising flour
  • ¼ tsp Bicarb Carb soda
  • 1/4 cup blueberries
    chocolate chips or dried fruit

Method​

  • Step 1​

    Heat the air fryer on 160C for 2 mins. Mix the oil, yogurt, egg and milk in a large bowl, then fold in the sugar, flour and bicarbonate of soda and combine well. Fold in the blueberries, chocolate chips or dried fruit, if using. Spoon the mixture into silicone cases or an air fryer muffin tin filled with paper cases to three-quarters full. You should be able to make 6-8 muffins, but you may have to bake them in batches.
  • Step 2
Place the cases or tin in the air fryer basket and cook for 12-15 mins until the muffins are golden brown and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean

Recipe tips​

Can I use paper cases?​

You can use paper cases in an air fryer, but they work best if you put them in an air fryer cake tin or muffin tin as they’re not as sturdy as silicone ones.

What temperature in the oven?​

If you want to cook these in the oven instead, bake at 200C/180C fan/gas 6 for 20-25 mins until risen, firm to the touch and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.

What are the benefits of using the air fryer to bake in?​

The air fryer requires less cooking time and uses less energy in general, so it’s a more energy- and time-efficient way to bake, especially when cooking smaller batches
