Easy Air Fryer Cornbread

Samantha Erb
Air fryer cornbread is super soft, perfectly moist, and uses just 3 ingredients. It tastes even better than baking in the oven!

Ingredients

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the air fryer to 320 degrees F. Then, spray an air fryer baking pan with cooking spray and set it aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add the cornbread mix, egg, and milk. Mix it until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Pour the batter into the baking pan, place the pan in the air fryer, then air fry for about 12 minutes.
  • Open the air fryer and cover the pan with aluminum foil. Continue air frying for another 4-5 minutes until the cornbread is cooked all the way through. It will cook a total time of about 16 to 17 minutes.

Notes

  • Spray the air fryer pan with cooking spray. This makes it way easier to get out of the pan after baking.
  • Preheat the air fryer before adding the cornbread.
  • Stir the batter until just mixed. Over-mixing will cause the batter to become dense.
  • Cover the cornbread with tinfoil after 12 minutes of cooking.
  • Check the corn bread using a toothpick. When it comes out clean, it's done.
  • Let the cornbread rest for a few minutes after taking it out of the oven.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container. It will keep on the counter for 1-2 days, refrigerator for about a week, and in the freezer for up to 3 months.
