Air Fryer Blueberry Lemon Bundt Cake--Air fryer cakes are easy to make, and everyone loves cake. You can make this delicious cake recipe from scratch with our simple instructions.
Today’s Bundt Cake was infused with lemon and blueberries, making a great breakfast for any family. One of the best things about cake for breakfast is that you can make it the night before and cut a slice with your morning coffee. That is such a great make-ahead breakfast!

Air Fryer Blueberry Lemon Bundt Cake
The key to this cake is that it starts with a lemon air fryer sponge cake and healthy blueberry toppings. So, you get the cake’s rich flavor but the sweetness from the blueberries!
It’s a perfect match.
Here are some tips for making a cake in the Air Fryer:
- Preheat your air fryer. Ensure you wear gloves when putting your pan into the air fryer.
- Always spray your pan with non-stick cooking spray, just as if you were making a cake in the oven. ( I use whatever I have on hand, either Pam or Baker’s Joy.) Trader Joe’s makes a great non-stick cooking spray, too.
- I cook my cakes in the air fryer low and slow. This makes them brown better and takes longer, resulting in a moist cake.
- Set the butter and eggs at room temperature.
- Use the correct tools to measure dry ingredients. Never use a measuring cup; always use
these tools - For a lighter batter, always cream the butter and sugar together.
- Allow the cake to cool for 10 minutes, and you should be able to get the cake out of the pan easily.
Could I Add Different Fruit In the Recipe
Are you looking to add different fruits besides blueberries? If so, reach for another type of berry, diced peaches, etc. Swapping out the fruit will work nicely. Just swap the fruit with the same amount of fresh fruit you are using. Or, if you wanted, you could mix berries: some blueberries, diced strawberries, and even raspberries. Play around with the flavors and see what fits you best.
Frozen Blueberries or Fresh Blueberries
Fresh raspberries are always my first pick, but you can also use frozen. The only problem with frozen berries is that as soon as you pour them into your cake batter, they will leak off a red color, which can alter the whole color of your bundt cake. The flavor will be amazing, and you will see a red tint and swirls in the batter.
Frozen berries are always at their prime and can be very affordable compared to buying fresh. If you use frozen berries, don’t thaw them; stir them right into the cake batter. Then, proceed to the next steps.
Storing
Due to the fresh berries in this recipe, I always recommend refrigerating your leftover cake. It helps extend its shelf life. Otherwise, it will not be good sooner if left at room temperature.
It is OK to serve it at room temperature. Don’t let the cake sit out for more than a few hours before eating it. Otherwise, toss it in the fridge.
Recipe Variations
Sometimes, people get worried about whether a recipe will work. So if you are in doubt about the air fryer, go right ahead with the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 F, and then pour the cake mixture into the pie pan.
Bake for about 30 minutes and check on the cake. If it is not done, allow cooking longer. You can tell when your cake is made by sticking a toothpick in the center and seeing if it comes out clean of wet batter.
Serving Suggestions
- Dust with powdered sugar
- Drizzle on a bit of caramel, chocolate, etc.
- Slice your cake and pair it with a big scoop of ice cream.
- Fresh fruit to sprinkle on top.
