Prepare cake batter in the mean time.<\/li>\n<li>Grease a 6-inch round cake pan with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.<\/li>\n<li>Add all dry ingredients into a small bowl and whisk until combined.<\/li>\n<li>Add all wet ingredients into a larger bowl, whisk until smooth and combined. Stir in the dry ingredients and mix with a rubber spatula, until just combined.<em>Tip:<\/em>\u00a0Over mixing will create gluten development, and might make the air fryer banana cake dense and tough, instead of the soft and fluffy texture you are aiming for.<\/li>\n<li>Transfer batter to the prepared pan, smooth top and sprinkle chopped walnuts on top.(The air fryer would have done pre heating by now). Set air fryer to 330\u00b0F for 35 minutes. When ready, place the cake pan into the air fryer basket and bake until done and brown.<\/li>\n<li>Check by inserting a knife into the middle of the cake and it needs to come out clean.<em>Pro tip:<\/em>\u00a0Baking time\u00a0\u2013 This air fryer banana cake will have a darker top, when compared to an oven baked cake. So, cake might look done on the top but still be undercooked inside. Insert a tooth pick or a thin knife into the cake after 35 minutes and it should come out clean or with a few crumbs attached to it. Else, bake the cake 5 to 10 minutes longer.<\/li>\n<li>Place the cake pan on a wire rack to cool completely.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Notes<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Mash the bananas thoroughly.<\/strong>\u00a0I like to use a potato masher, but a fork would also do the trick.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Use greek yogurt\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 Use \u00bc cup + 2 tablespoons plain greek yogurt along with 2 tablespoons water instead of the regular yogurt in the recipe.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cake pan\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 A 6-inch round baking pan.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Air Fryer used<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 This recipe was tested in\u00a0<em>Instant Pot 6qt Vortex Air Fryer<\/em><strong>,<\/strong>\u00a0cooking time may vary for other brands.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nutrition<\/h3>\n<p>Serving:\u00a01\u00a0Serving\u00a0|\u00a0Calories:\u00a0162kcal\u00a0|\u00a0Carbohydrates:\u00a030g\u00a0|\u00a0Protein:\u00a04g\u00a0|\u00a0Fat:\u00a03g\u00a0|\u00a0Saturated Fat:\u00a01g\u00a0|\u00a0Polyunsaturated Fat:\u00a02g\u00a0|\u00a0Cholesterol:\u00a030mg\u00a0|\u00a0Sodium:\u00a0220mg\u00a0|\u00a0Fiber:\u00a01g\u00a0|\u00a0Sugar:\u00a016g<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Air Fryer Banana Cake recipe offers a quick and easy way to indulge in a wonderfully soft and fluffy dessert with minimal effort.
