Muffins are a breakfast classic, and can be handy to have throughout the day as a quick snack or with a cup of coffee.
Instead of spending money in cafes buying a fresh muffin, why don't you make your own?
Using the air fryer, they're quick and easy.

All you have to do is mix up all the ingredients together, put them in their cases and pop them in the air fryer to bake.
You can have a batch of freshly made muffins at home, saving you from forking out what can be around €4 or €5 in some places.
The great thing is also that you can add in whatever you like - whichever fruit takes your fancy, your favourite chocolate, nuts or seeds.
Take a look at this recipe from BBC's Good Food that makes air fryer muffins a cinch.
Ingredients
- 60ml vegetable oil
- 75g natural yogurt
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp milk
- 100g golden caster sugar
- 150g self-raising flour
- ¼ tsp bicarbonate of soda
- 75g blueberries, chocolate chips or add in of your choice
Method
- STEP 1
Heat the air fryer on 160C for 2 mins. Mix the oil, yogurt, egg and milk in a large bowl, then fold in the sugar, flour and bicarbonate of soda and combine well. Fold in the blueberries, chocolate chips or dried fruit, if using. Spoon the mixture into silicone cases or an air fryer muffin tin filled with paper cases to three-quarters full. You should be able to make 6-8 muffins, but you may have to bake them in batches.
- STEP 2
Place the cases or tin in the air fryer basket and cook for 12-15 mins until the muffins are golden brown and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
