Air Fryer Banana Bread

Janice Pattie
Air Fryer Banana Bread is a classic bake that I've adapted to make in my air fryer. It's simple to make and just as delicious as it is when baked in the oven.

  • 100 g ripe banana

  • 110 g self-raising flour
  • ½ tsp bicarbonate of soda (baking soda)

Instructions
 

  • Mash 100 g (¼ cup) ripe banana with a fork in a medium bowl.
  • Add 60 g (2 oz) soft brown sugar and 60 g (2 oz) butter and beat with a mixer or wooden spoon.
  • Add 1 medium egg (beaten), 110 g (1 cup) self raising flour, ½ tsp bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) and 1 tsp ground cinnamon and mix together with a spatula or wooden spoon.
  • Preheat your air fryer, if your model requires this. Brush a 1 lb loaf pan with 1 tsp vegetable oil OR cake release. Then fill the pan with the mxiture and bake the banana bread at 160 C (325 F) for 10 minutes.
  • Cover the banana bread with foil and continue to bake in the air fryer at 160 C (325 F) for a further 25 minutes.
  • Remove the foil and test with a skewer. If the skewer comes out clean the banana bread is ready. If not then take the loaf out of the pan, turn it over so that the bottom of the loaf is uppermost and bake for a further 5 minutes at 160 C (325 F).

  • Wait until it is completely cold before slicing and serve spread with butter.

Notes

Bake Two Air Fryer Banana Bread Loaves

I managed to fit two 1 lb silicone pans into my air fryer.  So if you can fit in more than one you can double quantities and make two loaves.  The baking temperature and time is the same.
