How To Make Air Fryer Chocolate Cake Mix Donuts

Start by making your donut mix in a large mixing bowl. Mix all of the donut ingredients.

Pour your batter into the silicone donut molds, place them into the air fryer basket; Set the time for 6-10 minutes at 320 degrees F, air fryer setting.

Repeat with the remaining batter, and let the donuts cool, before you frost them.

Pro Tips:

• Use a great quality chocolate cake mix. I love a great Ghiradelli Chocolate Cake Mix, and it’s so rich and yummy!
• Make sure to spray your pan with cooking spray. This way, the donuts slide out easily.
• Check your donuts frequently as they cook up since each air fryer is slightly different.
• While I used a simple ganache topping, you can add any topping that you like.
• Fill your pan only 2/3 the way full. Otherwise, the dough will rise and spillover in the Air Fryer.

What Other Toppings Can I use For These Donuts Instead Of Icing?

This is a easy recipe to add toppings, which makes it a fun recipe, for you to make with the kids, or even serve at a party!

Some easy options:

• Powdered Sugar
• Canned Frosting
• Coat with a cinnamon and sugar mixture

How Do I Store Any Leftover Air Fryer Donuts?

If you have any leftovers let them cool to room temperature and then place them into an airtight container. They will last for about 3 days in the refrigerator.

For best results, you may want to re-frost them before serving.
