Easy Air Fryer Angel Food Mug Cake (Printer-Friendly)
Light, fluffy individual cake made in minutes using an air fryer and mug for a quick sweet treat.
# What You'll Need:
→ Dry
01 - 3 tablespoons angel food cake mix
→ Wet
02 - 2 tablespoons water
→ Optional toppings
03 - 1 tablespoon whipped cream
04 - Fresh berries such as strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries
# How to Make It:
01 - Lightly coat a microwave-safe mug with nonstick cooking spray
02 - Combine the angel food cake mix and water in the prepared mug. Stir thoroughly until completely smooth and well incorporated
03 - Place the mug in the air fryer basket and cook at 320°F for 7 to 8 minutes, or until the cake has risen and set in the center. Insert a toothpick into the center to verify doneness—it should come out clean
04 - Carefully remove the hot mug from the air fryer and let cool for 1 to 2 minutes. Top with whipped cream and fresh berries if desired, then serve immediately
# Expert Advice:
01 -
- A single serving means no leftovers to tempt you tomorrow
- The texture is shockingly close to traditionally baked angel food cake
02 -
- Use a mug that holds at least 10 ounces or the batter might overflow while rising
- Every air fryer cooks differently, so start checking at the 7 minute mark
03 -
- Let the mug cool for at least a minute before removing, or use oven mitts
- If the cake browns too quickly, reduce the temperature by 10 degrees
