No kneading, no eggs, no butter — Homemade muffins

Ingredients

• 1½ cups all-purpose flour
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup milk (or plant-based milk)
• ⅓ cup vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ½ cup raisins, chocolate chips, or chopped fruit (optional)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Muffin Batter

1. Preheat the air fryer to 320°F (160°C) for 3–5 minutes.
2. In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
3. Add milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract.
4. Stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix; a few small lumps are fine.
5. Fold in raisins, chocolate chips, or fruit if using.

2. Prepare for Air Frying

1. Lightly grease silicone muffin cups or small oven-safe muffin molds.
2. Fill each cup about ¾ full with batter.
3. Place the muffin cups in the air fryer basket.

3. Air Fry the Muffins

1. Air fry at 320°F (160°C) for 12–16 minutes.
2. Check by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.
3. If needed, cook for another 1–2 minutes.

4. Serve

1. Let the muffins cool for 5 minutes before removing from the molds.
2. Serve warm with tea, coffee, jam, or honey.
