Air Fryer Blueberry Muffins

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil or melted butter
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Batter:
    • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
    • In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil (or melted butter), egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
    • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
    • Gently fold in the blueberries.
  2. Preheat the Air Fryer:
    • Preheat your air fryer to 320°F (160°C) for about 3-5 minutes.
  3. Prepare the Muffin Cups:
    • Lightly grease silicone muffin cups or use paper liners. If using paper liners, lightly spray them with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
    • Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full with the batter.
  4. Air Fry the Muffins:
    • Carefully place the muffin cups into the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure they don’t touch.
    • Air fry at 320°F (160°C) for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
    • If your air fryer is smaller, you may need to cook the muffins in batches.
  5. Cool and Serve:
    • Once done, remove the muffins from the air fryer and allow them to cool in the muffin cups for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
