Ingredients

Cake batter of some sorts (I have plenty here on my show)
Frosting
Other toppings
Shortening for pan
Ingredients for the cake batter

Steps:

Prepare your cake batter by following a homemade recipe or the back of the cake mix box.
Take a cake pan that is small enough to fit in your air fryer basket and grease up the sides and bottom with shortening. Flour the sides and bottom as well, tapping the pan to remove the excess flour. Optionally add a round piece of parchment paper on the bottom of the pan.
Fill up the pan a little bit over halfway full. If you have any cake batter remaining you can make cupcakes with it. If using cake strips, soak them in water, wring them out, and then encircle the cake pan. This will help to evenly bake the cake and prevent doming.
Turn the air fryer temp to 350 F (176 C). Set the timer for 20 minutes. Allow it to heat up for a minute or two. Remove the basket and put it in your cake pan. Put the basket back inside the air fryer and let it do its thing. The cake will cook for 18 to 19 minutes.
After the timer goes off check it with a toothpick. Poke the cake in the middle; if the toothpick comes out clean it is ready to go. If there is still a bit of cake batter on it, cook the cake for 3 to 5 more minutes. BE CAREFUL when handling the cake pan it will be hot. If the pan has a handle do not grab it without wearing an oven mitt or silicone mitt.
Once baked, allow the cake to cool down in the pan for 10 to 12 minutes. Then remove it from the pan and place it on a wire rack to cool completely. Frost and decorate the cake however you like. Enjoy!

AIR-FRIED BUTTER CAKE

Air-Fried Butter Cake image

This is a basic butter cake; the trickiest bit was finding a cake tin to fit in the air fryer. I went with a ring tin, which works really well and makes it cook even quicker. Top with confectioners' sugar.

Tips:

Choose a cake pan that is specifically designed for air fryers. These pans are typically smaller than traditional cake pans and have a perforated bottom to allow for even cooking.
Grease the cake pan lightly with cooking spray or butter to prevent the cake from sticking.
Follow the recipe carefully and adjust the cooking time and temperature as needed for your specific air fryer.
Insert a toothpick into the center of the cake to check for doneness. It should come out clean or with just a few moist crumbs attached.
Allow the cake to cool slightly in the air fryer basket before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Air fryer cake pans are a convenient and versatile tool that allow you to bake delicious cakes in your air fryer. With a little practice, you can create perfectly cooked cakes that are moist, fluffy, and delicious. So next time you're in the mood for a homemade cake, give your air fryer a try!
