FAQ’s:

Can I substitute cake flour for all-purpose flour?

Yes, they both make a great cake. Feel free to switch out all-purpose to gluten-free, making for a great gluten-free cake.

What Are The Best Cake Pan to Use in the Air Fryer?

I love a good bundt cake in the air fryer. This way, you don’t have to worry about the middle cooking, a common problem in air fryers. If you do not want a bundt cake, I strongly suggest using a thinner pan, which will enable the air fryer to cook your cake thoroughly.

How Long Does It Last

I always make a cake the night before I need it, let it sit at room temperature, and then frost or ice it the next day. Ensure the cake is wrapped with saran wrap, so it does not dry out.

When you have any leftovers, after you ice or frost the cake, cover the cake or put it in an airtight container and place it in the refrigerator. It should last a couple of days.

Freezing Instructions:

This is a great recipe that you can make ahead and freeze. Let the cake cool to room temperature, and then place it into a freezer-safe container or freezer bag.

The vanilla cake will be good for about 1 to 2 months. For best results, let thaw in the refrigerator overnight.

What Setting Do You Use For Cooking A Cake In The Air Fryer?

Depending on the air fryer you own, you will have different settings. I usually use the air fryer setting for most of my recipes.

If you have a bake setting on your air fryer, you can also use that, but it won’t make any difference. All you need to do is set the time and temperature. But remember that since every air fryer is slightly different, make sure you check on your cake frequently during the cooking process.

When the toothpick stuck in the middle of your cake comes out clean, remove it from the air fryer. Continue to cook until the cake is fully cooked. If you find that the top is browning too fast, you can tightly wrap a piece of foil around the pan. But remember that you need to ensure the foil does not hit the heating element. Otherwise, it will pose a safety concern.

How To Bake It In The Oven?

You can easily make this vanilla cake recipe air fryer in the oven. Prepare as directed, then place into a preheated 350 degree F oven and cook for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the cake is fully cooked.
