Banana choc chip muffins in oven and air fryer method

  • Preheat the air fryer to 180*C. Fill ¾ of the banana chocolate chip muffin batter to the muffin cup and bake for 12 to 13 minutes, until a skewer inserted into the middle of the muffin comes out clean.
  • Preheat the oven to 180*C. Fill ¾ of the banana chocolate chip muffin batter to the muffin cup and bake for 16 to 18 minutes, until a skewer inserted into the middle of the muffin comes out clean.
  • Perfect light brown top with melted chocolate chip banana muffins in the air fryer is ready.
  • Likewise, the batch of banana muffins baked in the oven is also ready.
  • Transfer the muffin cups onto the cooling rack and let them cool for 10 minutes. I love to eat hot muffins with gooey chocolate as soon as they come out of the oven. Trying to eat hot muffins is a sinfully delicious experience.

Notes

Please make sure to preheat your air fryer before using it. Follow the instructions provided in the air fryer manual to avoid any mishaps.
Use muffin cups or silicon moulds for baking in the air fryer. It will help to hold the batter and give a better shape to your muffins.
Finally, be careful not to over-mix the muffin batter. Gently mix the dry ingredients into the wet banana mixture for the best results.
