HOW TO MAKE AIR FRYER BREAD

Combine the flour, yeast, salt, and sugar together. Then add the warm water and oil, stirring well until combined. The dough will be very sticky.
Let the dough rise for 1 hour, then turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
To shape the roll, place the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Gently pull the edges of the dough up and to the middle, creating a round loaf. Turn the loaf upside down in the pan so the smooth side is on top.
Cut 2 to 3 slices on the top of the dough. Place the dough on a piece of parchment paper that will easily fit into a 6” to 8” round pan.
Place the parchment paper with the dough into the pan and let it rise in a warm place for about an hour.
Preheat the air fryer at 400° for 10 minutes.
Place the pan with the bread dough in the air fryer. Add a few pieces of ice to the outside of the round pan, but inside the air fryer basket.
Place the air fryer basket back into the air fryer and bake at 400° until golden brown for about 20 to 25 minutes. Flip the bread over and continue frying for an additional 5 minutes.
Remove and serve.

HELPFUL NOTES:

To shape the roll, place the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Gently pull the edges of the dough up and to the middle, creating a round loaf. Turn the loaf upside down in the pan so the smooth side is on top.
To get the nice crispy texture on the outside of the bread, place some ice cubes around the outside of the bread pan. The steam will help the outside form a nice chewy, crispy crust.
Depending on the size of your air fryer, you will need a round 6” to 8” pan.
Cut a piece of parchment paper for your round pan, making sure it comes up the sides of your pan, but not over the top to prevent the paper from burning.
