Air Fryer Cocoa Ring Cake

This Cocoa Ring Cake in Air Fryer is a classic pantry cake, perfect for breakfast and teatime. Soft and even more delicious with the addition of white chocolate flakes, which you can replace with dark chocolate chips.

I am always hesitant about cocoa preparations… good at the moment but often tend to dry out. I had this recipe saved from the Tavolartegusto blog for a long time, and I finally decided to try it, and I have to admit it’s one of the best cocoa cakes! I thought I would regret it, but the Air Fryer Cocoa Ring Cake surprised me and won over my family: tall, soft, and delicious. I love making desserts, especially when they are quick to prepare with a satisfying final result. Another ring cake I love for its texture and aroma is the Carrot, Apple, and Lemon Ring Cake or the Yogurt Muffins with Chocolate Chips which are also beautiful to look at.

The Cocoa Ring Cake is butter-free, and the batter is prepared in just a few minutes. The eggs and milk must be at room temperature, so if you have them in the refrigerator, take them out at least 30 minutes before… shall we make it???
