Making Air Fryer Bread is incredibly easy. This simple recipe makes a perfect loaf of bread that is light and fluffy on the inside, with a golden crust.
- PREP TIME: 10minutes mins
- COOK TIME: 10minutes mins
- DOUGH RISING: 30minutes mins
- TOTAL TIME: 50minutes mins
EQUIPMENT:
- Air Fryer
INGREDIENTS:
- 2 ¼ teaspoons instant yeast 1 packet
- ¼ cup warm water
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup milk
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
Egg Wash:
- 1 large egg whisked
INSTRUCTIONS :
- Add yeast to a bowl with water that is warm. Let the yeast sit in the warm water for about 3 to 5 minutes.
- Once the yeast has activated, add in the flour, sugar, milk, butter, and salt. Gently fold the ingredients together until they were well combined and it becomes slightly flaky.
- Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead the dough until it is smooth, then shape it into a ball.
- Place the ball of dough into the air fryer basket, and then wrap with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel. Allow the dough to rest until it doubles in size, about 30 minutes.
- Brush the top of the loaf with an egg wash. and air fry at 320 degrees Fahrenheit for 8 to 10 minutes, until the top of the bread is golden brown.
NOTES:
- Air frying cooking times may vary. Add 1-2 minutes cooking time if necessary, until the top of the bread is golden brown.
- I use instant yeast instead of active yeast, because the dough will rise a bit faster, and doesn’t require proving. Keep in mind if you use active yeast, it will take about 15-30 more minutes for the dough to rise, but you can use either.
- Allow the bread to cool completely before storing to prevent moisture in the bread. This can cause mold or sogginess.
- Using a circle of parchment paper to line the springform pan makes for easy removal. If you aren’t using a pan, be sure to line your basket with air fryer parchment paper. The bread dough will sink through the holes in the basket without parchment paper.
