MINI CHEESE MUFFINS with Air Fryer

The mini cheese muffins with air fryer are irresistibly good, tasty, and delicious, in addition to being very easy to make with the air fryer.

Get some paper cups with a diameter of 1.5 inches, an air fryer (of course), and in 20 minutes you’ll have a delicious appetizer or snack to serve. Note that everything we make with the air fryer can also be done in a traditional ventilated oven.

  • Difficulty: Very Easy

  • Portions: 20 Pieces

Ingredients

  • 4.9 oz flour
  • 2.8 oz grated Parmesan
  • 0.5 cup milk
  • 2.7 tbsp sunflower seed oil
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tbsp crispy fried onion (available ready-made)
  • 0.14 oz salt
  • 1 pinch sugar
  • 1/2 packet instant baking powder for savory preparations
  • to taste poppy seeds, white pepper powder

Steps

  • Put all the dough ingredients in a bowl and mix them well together until you get a smooth and homogeneous mixture.

    Crispy fried onion can be found ready-made in the supermarket sections where Asian products are sold.

  • Preheat the air fryer to 320°F for 3 minutes.

    In the meantime, place the paper cups on the grill of the air fryer basket, and fill them one by one with scant 2 teaspoons of mixture, to 3/4 full, because they will rise while cooking.

  • Cook the mini cheese muffins at 320°F for 15 minutes.

    Take out the air fryer basket and let them cool slightly before serving.

    They are excellent for an appetizer accompanied by prosciutto, olives, and cheeses, for a snack, hot or cold.
