Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup wheat germ or whole-wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
2 ripe bananas
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup plain yogurt (not Greek)
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 large egg
1 to 2 tablespoons turbinado sugar, optional

Steps:

  • Spray a 7-inch round air-fryer insert, metal cake pan or foil pan with nonstick spray. Set aside.
  • Whisk together the flour, wheat germ, salt and baking soda in a medium bowl. Mash the bananas until very smooth in a separate medium bowl. Add the granulated sugar, oil, yogurt, vanilla and egg to the banana and whisk until smooth. Sift the dry ingredients over the wet and fold together with a spatula until just combined. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle the top of the batter with the turbinado sugar if desired, for a crunchy, sweet topping.
  • Put the pan in a 3.5-quart air fryer and cook at 310 degrees F, turning the pan halfway through, until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the bread comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Transfer the pan to a rack to cool for 10 minutes. Unmold the banana bread from the pan and let cool completely on the rack before slicing into wedges to serve.

Tips for Air Fryer Bread Recipes

  • Use the right type of bread: Not all breads are created equal when it comes to air frying. Some breads, like sourdough and ciabatta, hold up well to the high heat and air circulation of an air fryer. Others, like sandwich bread and white bread, tend to dry out quickly.
  • Preheat your air fryer: Preheating your air fryer helps to ensure that the bread cooks evenly and doesn't stick to the basket. Simply set your air fryer to the desired temperature and let it run for a few minutes before adding the bread.
  • Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket: Overcrowding the air fryer basket will prevent the bread from cooking evenly. Make sure to leave enough space between the pieces of bread so that the air can circulate freely.
  • Watch the cooking time: Air fryer bread cooks quickly, so it's important to keep an eye on it to prevent it from overcooking. Check the bread regularly and remove it from the air fryer as soon as it's golden brown and cooked through.
  • Serve immediately: Air fryer bread is best served hot and fresh out of the air fryer. Enjoy it with your favorite toppings, such as butter, jam, or avocado.
