Air Fryer Cake Recipes

You know, I haven’t cooked a cake in the oven for years, now when I bake a cake it will involve a favourite kitchen gadget.

Whether that is an air fryer cake, air fryer oven cake or instant pot cake.

I love them all and because you are cooking a cake in kitchen gadgets differently, with different pressure and different cook times, it helps make your cake even more moist.

When I get a new subscriber to Recipe This, I will often ask them what recipe they are looking for next and it amazes me how many would like pointing towards cooking a cake in the air fryer.

I am always really pleased though, as I have a few different cakes that our readers can choose from, as they settle into using the air fryer.

Air Fryer Cake Baking Times

The air fryer cook times are faster compared to cooking cake in the oven. But watch out for overbrowning on top because of the way the air fryer circulates in the air fryer.

To combat this problem, you can add a layer of silver foil over your cake.

You will also need to cook your cake at a lower temperature compared to the oven. This is because it will cook too quickly in one place otherwise.

Air Fryer Cake Pan

The cake pan that you see in those photos above is the Philips Air Fryer Cake Pan. You can also use a little pizza pan like this:

Just focus on something that fits nicely in the air fryer.
