Learn how to make these homemade Air Fryer Banana Muffins with this delicious and easy recipe. Made with fresh bananas and in less than 10 minutes!

I love banana muffins and these homemade Air Fryer Banana Muffins are my new favorite snack.

Do you know what makes banana muffins the best? Using ripe bananas!

Why Use Ripe Bananas for Muffins?

Banana muffins are made with ripe bananas which gives the muffins a sweeter flavor than using fresh bananas. The riper the fruit, the more the fructose, sucrose, and glucose are increased which makes the fruit sweeter.

Another one of my favorite muffins to make is Air Fryer Blueberry Muffins. So good!

I love making muffins in the air fryer. They're super easy with silicone liners and made fast!

Once you have all of your ingredients together, these muffins come together relatively quickly.

Ingredients:

  • all purpose flour
  • granulated white sugar
  • light brown sugar
  • baking powder
  • bananas ripe, mashed
  • vanilla extract
  • egg
  • unsalted butter, melted
Ingredients needed to make banana muffins in the air fryer.

How to Make Banana Muffins in the Air Fryer

  • Add the flour and baking powder to a large bowl and set aside.
  • In a medium sized mixing bowl, cream together the white sugar, brown sugar, and butter with a hand mixer.
  • Add the egg and the vanilla extract to the butter mixture.
  • Pour the butter and sugar mixture into the flour mixture and mix until combined.
  • Fold the mashed bananas into the muffin batter.
  • Use a large cookie scoop or ice cream scoop to scoop the batter into the silicone baking molds. Fill each mold ¾ of the way full.

NOTE: This banana muffin recipe was made using a 5.8 Quart Cosori Air Fryer. If you're using a different brand of air fryer you may need to adjust the cook time. All air fryers cook a little differently and it's always a good idea to test the recipe before making it.

    Can you use the foil cupcake liners or would they collapse? They look delicious!

      I have only ever used the silicone liners and never used the foil liners so I am not sure. I would think if you were able to double or triple them they would stay sturdy enough for you to fill them halfway or so without collapsing.

      I am glad these turned out well for you! The only suggestion I could think of is "were they ripe, and did you mash them well?" Either way, I am glad they worked out for you! Also, sometimes altitude comes into play when you are baking. I am at sea level, so if you're at a higher altitude, that could be a little issue as well. Usually, a higher altitude can take a little less time when baking.
