Ingredients

• 1 sweet potato

Instructions

• Peel the sweet potato and cut it into evenly sized long slices.

• Bake at 160 degrees Celsius for 20 minutes. Adjust the time depending on the thickness of the slices. Turn the individual slices approx. 5 minutes before the end of the cooking time.

Tips

Try a sweet variation and spread maple syrup or homemade jam on top. It’s not just the savory version that tastes good.

Cut the sweet potatoes into evenly thin slices so that they all crisp up at the same time. Set the temperature and time according to your air fryer, as each hot air fryer works differently. Don’t place them too close together so that the air can circulate. These air fryer sweet potato slices are best enjoyed hot, when they are at their crispiest.

Prep Time 20 minutes minutes

Cook Time 40 minutes minutes

Total Time 1 hour hour

Servings 4 person

Ingredients

• 3 ripe bananas
• 130 g whole spelt flour
• 130 g spelt flour type 1050
• 16 g baking powder
• 50 g date flour
• 1 juice of one lemon
• 100 ml almond milk

Topping

• 20 g carob powder
• 20 g date flour
• 20 g starch flour
• 250 ml almond milk

Instructions

• Peel the bananas and mash them with a fork.
• Mix the dry ingredients.
• Add the banana puree, lemon juice, and almond milk to the dry ingredients. Mix everything well.
• For the air fryer, use a round piece of baking paper with a rim. Fill it with half of the batter.
• Bake at 170 degrees Celsius for 20 minutes.
• Remove the cake, turn it upside down, and peel off the baking paper. Allow to cool.
• Repeat the process with the second half of the dough.
• In the meantime, prepare the topping and allow it to cool slightly. To do this, take approximately 50 ml of the almond milk and mix it with the carob and cornstarch in a cup. Add the date flour to the remaining almond milk and bring to a boil in a saucepan. Then quickly stir in the mixed powder with a whisk and bring to a boil.
• Spread the topping on the underside of each half.

Tips

Do not stir the batter for too long. Especially with spelt flour, brief mixing is sufficient. Stirring for too long will make the cake dense instead of light and fluffy.

There are also special silicone baking molds for the air fryer. These replace baking paper and can be used again and again.

Experiment with temperatures, as every air fryer works differently. It is better to bake the air fryer banana cake a little longer at a moderate temperature (e.g., 160–170 °C). This will keep the cake moist and prevent the top from becoming too dark.

Preparing them in an air fryer means the fries are quick, clean, and energy-efficient. They are the perfect side dish, a popular snack for an evening in front of the TV, or an easy meal for the whole family.

Why these fries turn out particularly well

Floury potatoes are the key to good french fries. Soy sauce gives the potatoes a certain delicate coating. Soaking in water beforehand ensures a certain level of moisture.

Interesting to know

The air fryer is always slightly hotter than a conventional oven at the same temperature. It must not be preheated because the air fryer should never be run without any food inside. However, this also saves time and electricity.

Baking in an air fryer removes water from the potatoes, so you should use a larger quantity.

They are very easy to prepare without an oven. In the air fryer, the rolls become delicately golden brown on the outside and wonderfully fluffy on the inside. The savory version with black cumin as a topping adds a subtle spicy note and makes the rolls particularly appetizing to look at.

Tips

Raisins in sweet breakfast rolls with a sweet topping are always particularly delicious and taste great as a light alternative to sweet pastries. A little cinnamon in the dough adds a wintery touch.

Interesting to know

The air fryer can be considered a small oven. Compared to a conventional oven, it does not need to be preheated, thus saving time and electricity. Food in the air fryer must not be covered, as it works with a fan and heating coil. It is particularly suitable for small portions.
