Why I love baking buns in my airfryer

Switching from the regular oven to the airfryer has revolutionized the way I bake. Here is why the machine has become my go-to partner for freshly baked buns:

Fantastic crust and soft center: The intense air circulation quickly creates a perfectly crispy surface, while the center stays incredibly soft and fluffy.
Time- and energy-saving: You skip the long preheating time. The airfryer is ready right away, which saves both time on a busy morning and energy on your electricity bill.
Suited to all types of dough: Through my experience, I have found the exact settings for everything from heavy rye buns to light birthday buns.
Easy and manageable: It is the perfect solution when you just need to bake a small batch for morning coffee or an afternoon treat, without having to fire up the whole kitchen.

FAQ – Frequently asked questions about baking buns in the airfryer

Can you bake all kinds of buns in the machine?

Yes, pretty much! My expertise in this area has shown me that most traditional recipes can be converted directly to the airfryer. The biggest difference lies in adjusting the baking time and temperature, since the airfryer heats far more intensely than a regular oven.

Why do my buns sometimes turn out dry?

It is a classic challenge, often caused by too long a baking time or too high a temperature. To ensure a reliable and juicy result, I always recommend following my precise temperature guides, which I have fine-tuned through many attempts. A small tip is also to lightly spray them with water before baking.

Should I use baking paper under the buns?

Yes, I recommend it to prevent the dough from sticking to the rack, and to ensure safe and easy handling. But always remember to cut the baking paper to size, so air can still circulate freely up along the sides – that is the secret to even baking.
