Tips for Keeping Muffins Moist
- Get set up with the perfect accessories like silicone molds for the muffin liners for easy air frying and time-saving cleanup.
- Avoid overmixing the batter to keep in pockets of air. Overmixing will make the banana muffins dense and chewy.
- Be sure not to overcook air fryer banana muffins as this will make them dry and crumbly. It’s okay to check them every few minutes to make sure they aren’t overbaking.

Came out perfect ! I add nuts and chocolate chips. Made in the Vortex
So happy you enjoyed this recipe!
Do you recommend using silicone cups only in the air fryer?
We like using the silicone cup with a rack-style air fryer but you can use a muffin tin as well if you have one that fits your air fryer.
it was so perfect of course cook little more as two mins after ten mins done.
On the ingredients list it says butter melted, but on the instructions it says, let the butter sit out til soft. So which one is it, should it be melted or soft.
You can actually do either. I prefer softened for muffins but melted works just fine!
