TIKTOK AIR FRYER PINEAPPLE TOAST
Despite the name, this pineapple toast doesn't have any pineapple in it. It's the golden, crackly pineapple skin-appearance that gives this dish its name. Soft and sweet with a buttery, crackly topping, this simple pastry has a contrast of textures you won't be able to resist. Inspired by a traditional, Hong Kong bakery-style bolo bao or pineapple bun, this recipe is a fun, easy twist on the Chinese sweet bun, adapted from cristina_yin on TikTok. Milk bread can be found in most Asian bakeries and makes for the softest, lightest base for this single-serve snack.

Tips:
- When using an air fryer to make pastries, it's essential to preheat the air fryer before adding the pastries. This will help to ensure that the pastries cook evenly.
- To prevent the pastries from sticking to the air fryer basket, lightly grease the basket with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper.
- Cook the pastries in a single layer so that they have enough space to cook evenly. If you are cooking a large batch of pastries, cook them in batches.
- Keep an eye on the pastries while they are cooking and adjust the cooking time as needed. The cooking time will vary depending on the type of pastry and the thickness of the pastry.
- Once the pastries are cooked, remove them from the air fryer and let them cool on a wire rack before serving.
Conclusion:
Air fryers are a great way to make delicious pastries that are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. By following these tips, you can make perfect pastries in your air fryer every time.
