Method 1: Let the cake cook for till you notice the top is browning usually about 15 to 20 mins then cover the top with foil and continue to cook for another 15 mins or until cake is fully cooked. Method 2 below may take longer but it also works. Preheating: My air fryer doesn’t require preheating however I recommend preheating your oven style air fryer if you intend to bake with it because it has a larger space to heat up than the basket style. You can preheat your basket style air fryer as well if you choose. However that is not to say you can’t use dark coated pans to bake cakes. After all most air fryer baking accessories seem to be dark colored pans. When baking in these, I would recommend keeping a close eye on the cake so it doesn’t over cook. Temperature and Time
However, with some tweaks and adjustments, you can still churn out delicious baked goods! Just remember the most important rules—never overcrowd, and adjust the cooking time and temperature.Using an air fryer oven is very similar to baking in a traditional convection oven or the conventional oven. Most oven style air fryers are big enough to fit bigger sized baking pans and dishes. Method 2: Cover the cake at the beginning for about 15 mins with foil then remove the foil and let it continue to cook till done if you find that the crust is browning too fast, you can cover with foil again to let it finish off the cooking. Whether you want to upgrade to a newer model, or your air-fryer has reached the end of its life, knowing how and where to dispose of your appliance is important to avoid creating more e-waste. As Zoë Kanan lauded in her previous blog, an air fryer cookie hits the spot for a crispy exterior and gooey interior. Other simple baked goods swing just as big. Sabine Venier is the blogger behind Also The Crumbs Please and a lifelong baker who caught the air frying bug years ago and has run with it since, actively trying out a wide variety of cooking and baking uses. With baking, she’s had “ great success with cakes [more on this later] , cobblers, pizza, pies, and doughnuts, but particularly love[s] brownies and cheesecake.”
In a similar vein, my friend James Park nudged me toward a dessert that reigns supreme in his air fryer: the Basque-Style Cheesecake. He likes to make a cheesecake infused with cooked ube, resulting in an ultraviolet pastel color and melty, extra-creamy texture. I made some for myself (one with ube, another with butternut squash and miso) and as promised, they possessed that soft, pudding-like interior and earthy caramelized flavors.
The key to converting baking recipes for the air fryer is to get the quantities right for the smaller air fryer baking pans. Most of my baking is done 330°F / 166°C for 12 - 15 mins. This also depends on the size of the batter and moisture in it. Just like in the oven, banana breads and bundt cakes tend to take a bit longer to bake than cupcakes, muffins and Madeleines. Expect to bake banana breads, banana cakes and bundt cakes for up to 30 mins at same temperature. Banana bread muffins Recommended Accessories and tools Understanding that an air fryer is basically a small convection oven means that, ultimately, a wide range of recipes can be baked in it. “ Don't be afraid to bake baked goods in the air fryer, you'll be pleasantly surprised with the results,” says Tanya Harris of the food blog My Forking Life, where she shares a handful of air fryer recipes. In her collection, a few standouts include baked apples and biscuits — even batches of granola. “The air fryer is great at making things crispy and crunchy,” she says.
Although it is recommended to downsize regular-sized baked goods to fit in an air fryer, air fryers are not an ideal option to bake very small items like choux pastry (cream puffs), madeleines, or mini-sized cupcakes.

Recommended by sources like Ben Mims in Air Fry Every Day and echoed by my fellow bakers, a general rule of thumb for air fryer (and convection oven) baking is to lower the temperature by 25°F and bake for 20 to 25 percent less time than the temperature and time a regular baking recipe calls for.
