HOW TO MAKE THE BEST AIR FRYER CUPCAKES

Start by letting your eggs and butter stay at room temperature, for about 30 minutes
Then prepare your muffin tin, by spraying it with non-stick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, and salt.
Then mix in the sugar, butter, and eggs, mix until everything is well combined.
Mix in the vanilla and milk. Combine until the batter is completely mixed.
Spoon batter into prepared muffin tin. Fill each one about 1/2 to 2/3 full.
Place the full muffin tin into the air fryer, and set the time for 12 minutes at 320 degrees F.
When the time is up, use a toothpick and stick the toothpick through the cupcake, if it comes out clean they are cooked. If not clean, put back into the air fryer and set the timer for another 3 minutes, continue to repeat until the toothpick comes out clean.
When done, remove and let cool, before frosting.
Frost, plate and serve, and don’t forget to enjoy it!

PRO TIPS:

Preheating: You do not need to preheat your air fryer, this recipe will be the same if you preheat or not since the batter needs to cook up.

Batches: You will need to cook in batches since most air fryers can only hold one muffin tin at a time.

Browning: If you find that your cupcakes are browning too fast, wrap your muffin tin in foil.

Cooking: Cook your muffin until they are fully cooked, place a toothpick into the center of the cupcake, to see if they are fully cooked.

Cooking Cupcakes in an Air Fryer Oven: If you are using an air fryer oven, palace the cupcake pan on the bottom shelf.
