Making a Bundt cake in the air fryer or Instant Pot (Pressure Cooker) is easy. You only need a few items and you should be all set to go. They look gorgeous when they are done, assuming you got yourself a good pan, and the cake did not stick to the pan. (Two of the hardest parts about baking, pressure cooking or air frying a bundt cake)
The real key to any great bundt cake is to purchase the correct pan. Searching the aisles at Target or Williams Sonoma, showed me a few options, the options at Amazon.com are limitless, below, I will share with you a few of my favorites.

One of the reasons that bundt cakes work well in both the air fryer and Instant Pot (Pressure Cooker) is due to the hole in the middle, which allows the cake to cook evenly. You will not end up with a soggy middle, at the end of your cooking time.

Bundt cake pans come in a variety of sizes, the size that you need will be based on the size (capacity) of your Air Fryer or Instant Pot. The larger the appliance you are using the larger bundt cake you can use.
You can also find mini bundt pans, above (are my favorite) and they will allow you to bake 2 or 3 in your air fryer, you will probably only be able to place on bundt cake in your Instant Pot, though.
