Air Fryer Apple Cake

Air Fryer Apple Cake a new sweet recipe to add to all my other Cakes! This super easy one, with few ingredients that I’m sure you all have at home, is a variation of my Air Fryer Orange Cake, made with apples instead of oranges.

I absolutely love apple cakes, I’ve made them for different tastes: like the APPLE CAKE WITH GREEK YOGURT, the SUGAR-FREE APPLE CAKE, and I also tried making the MICROWAVE APPLE CAKE to experiment with another appliance I have at home.. and what can I say! All delicious!

I’ve been cooking a lot of dishes in the air fryer, especially since my daughter was born, not so much for the quicker cooking time which is more or less the same, but for the ease of cleaning I find with this appliance.

In fact, I have also made AIR FRYER MUFFINS and STUFFED APPLES, but also savory dishes like AIR FRYER CARROTS and Air Fryer Sea Bream!
