Description

Air Fryer Mardi Gras Cake is easy to make and such a festive dessert or breakfast to celebrate Mardi Gras.

King Cake Ingredients:

  • In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together. This will make for a fluffy pound cake.
  • Then mix in the eggs and flour.
  • Mix well.
  • Pour the batter into a greased air fryer safe pan.
  • Set the pan into the air fryer, and set the temperature to 320 degrees F for 20 minutes.
  • When the time is up, place a toothpick in the pound cake, and check to see that the toothpick comes out clean. If not, add another 5 minutes.

  • Drizzle the icing over the cake, and then immediately sprinkle the colored sugars on top.

Equipment

Notes

Note: Depending on your air fryer and the pan you use. I highly recommend purchasing mini-loaf pans as they are better at cooking the entire quick bread.
Note; This will make 3 Mini Loaves or 2 mini bundt cakes
