REPIN this Air Fryer Pumpkin Spice Muffin Recipe
Pretty tasty. I am new to air fryer baking/cooking, so I am experimenting with cooking times. Mine went for 11 min. Baked in silicone muffin cups
I wondered if they could use a bit of salt or drizzle of frosting to increase the yum factor. Quick and easy!
A drizzle of frosting sounds like a delicious addition.
How bout Almond flour?
Almond flour can be a bit moist so isn’t a good direct substitution. If wanting to try and make this recipe gluten-free you would have better results with gluten-free all-purpose flour.
What kind of flour do we use
Hi DK, We use all-purpose flour for this recipe.
