Ricotta Muffins in Air Fryer

The Muffins with ricotta dough are very soft treats, without butter and oil and cooked in the air fryer they are ready in just 13 minutes. These small treats with chocolate chips are very delicious and remain soft thanks to the ricotta, which gives moisture to the dough.

Obviously, if you do not own an air fryer you can also cook these muffins in the oven, at the end of the recipe you will find the cooking methods. If you are considering purchasing one, I recommend mine, you can find the link in the recommended tools!

Other recipes using the AIR FRYER.

What I like about muffins is that they are prepared very quickly, with just a bowl and a spatula, there is no need for electric whisks or anything else because the dough should not be overworked!

How to prepare Ricotta Muffins in Air Fryer

  • Place the ricotta, eggs, and sugar in a bowl and mix well, then add the rest of the ingredients and blend everything with a spatula. Do not overwork the batter, just enough to obtain a homogeneous mixture.

  • Divide the batter into paper baking cups using an ice cream scoop or a spoon. To maintain shape, I placed the baking cups inside ceramic molds, but this is not necessary.
    Add the remaining chocolate chips and cook the ricotta muffins in the air fryer for 13 minutes at 311°F.

Your Questions
