Air Fryer Bread
Description
Air Fryer Bread uses melted butter, yeast, sugar, salt, and flour to create a classic yeast bread dough. The dough is mixed with warm water and kneaded well in a stand mixer before being placed into a buttered round baking pan. After rising in a warm dry place for about an hour, it is cooked at 380°F in the air fryer for roughly 20 to 25 minutes, yielding a loaf with a nicely browned crust. The bread is cooled briefly in the pan before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
The texture of this bread should be soft inside with a firm, golden crust forming in the air fryer environment. The direct air circulation in the air fryer encourages even browning and a crusty finish without the need for an oven. This bread pairs well with butter, jams, or can be used for sandwiches.
This recipe is practical for those without an oven or who want small batch fresh bread. The rise time and cooking steps are straightforward, and the pan size is compact to fit well in an air fryer basket. Cooling the bread fully before slicing helps maintain structure and crumb texture.
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons butter melted - plus more for the pan, unsalted
- 1 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 2 2/3 cups all-purpose flour spoon and level excess
Instructions
- Lightly butter a 6-by-3-inch round pan and set it aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, combine butter, yeast, sugar, salt, and 1 cup of warm water. Stir on low speed for about 30 seconds.
- With the mixer on low speed add 1/2 cup of the flour, and mix until fully incorporated, keep adding the flour 1/2 cup at a time and mixing after each addition.
- Once all of the flour is added, knead on medium speed for 8-10 minutes.
- After that, transfer the dough to the prepared pan, cover, and let rise in a dry warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
- Transfer the pan. to a 3.5-quart air fryer and cook at 380 degrees F for about 20-25 minutes. The bread crust should be a dark brown and the internal temperature should reach 200 degrees F.
- Once done, remove from the basket and let cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
