This Air Fryer Cake recipe is a quick and delicious way to fulfill those crazy cake cravings when you donot have any at home nor have the inkling to go bake a big one in an oven 😉
I’m sure a lot of you would agree that such cravings end up either 12 at night or at the laziest or weirdest time and this recipe is literally my goto – Did I say I looooove my Air Fryer!!!
Also, I found these cute 4inch aluminum quiche pan a few months back and the cake is an easy breeze ever since.So much so, that it’s one of our guilty food during late-night movies.
What Do You Need to Make Air Fryer Cake from Scratch?
This particular cake is made using extremely basic (everyone’s kitchen pantry) ingredients like:
- All-Purpose Cake Flour
- Milk
- Oil
- Water
- Sugar
- Baking Soda
- Cocoa Powder – optional
- Vanilla Extract – optional
I’m using some slivered/chopped almonds on top but that is completely optional.
Also, if you donot have cocoa powder or vanilla extract, that’s also not a problem, simply skip those ingredients.
You can use instant coffee powder too to flavor the cake.
How To Make The Cake:
Unlike lengthy cake process, this cake is extremely quick and you just need a bowl and small whisk/fork to whip up the ingredients.
- As always, we start by whisking wet ingredients together in a bowl.
- Then add dry ingredients and whisk everything. Just make sure there are no lumps.
- Then we pour the batter in our cake pan and carefully place the pan in a pre-heated air-fryer.
- Air Fry for 10 minutes at 190C and then we cool the cake completely.
- That’s it, the cake is ready and dig in 🙂
Tips for a Perfect Cake:
Always Pre-Heat the Air Fryer before making the sake as it helps in even baking.
Always Cool the Cake Completely before eating.
You Can use pre-package Cake Mug Mix and use the same baking timings.
Air Fryer Cake Pan?
I always recommend using an oven-safe dish in the air fryer as the temperatures are very similar to both. You can use pyrex, aluminum or even regular baking dishes.
Air Fryer Cake Time / Temperature?
This varies slightly as each air fryer has a different baking/cooking mode. Hence I always use a manual setting for cakes.
Serving Suggestion:
- You can serve this cake as is.
- You can add fresh strawberries on top and serve the cake.
- You can ice the cake using buttercream or any other frosting of choice.
- You can simply drizzle chocolate sauce or even nutella on the cake and serve (my fav topping)
With these tips and this easy recipe, I hope you make this asap and win over those cake cravings 🙂
