Why the airfryer is brilliant for warm desserts

Conjuring up desserts in the airfryer is both easy and incredibly time-saving. Here is why I most often leave the big oven off when the sweet tooth strikes:

• Perfect textures: The intense heat is absolutely fantastic for creating desserts with a crisp surface and a runny, soft center.
• Lightning-fast indulgence: The machine is ready right away. You can have a warm dessert ready in under 10-15 minutes from idea to plate.
• Perfect for everyday: You can easily make small, single portions, which reduces food waste and makes it easy to whip up a quick weekday dessert.
• Healthy alternatives: It is brilliant for baking fruit such as apples, peaches or pineapple, which get an incredibly intense, caramelized flavor with no extra fat at all.

FAQ – Frequently asked questions about desserts in the airfryer

Which dishes can I use for my individual desserts?

You can use any small dishes that are safe in a regular oven. In my experience, small ceramic ramekins, small glass dishes (oven-safe) or silicone molds work perfectly for things like chocolate fondant or small tarts.

Can I make desserts with a molten center, such as a gooey chocolate cake?

Yes, it is actually one of the things the airfryer does best! Because the heat is so intense, the outside bakes lightning-fast while the middle stays runny and creamy. It does require precise timing, so always follow my exact baking times for a safe result.

How do I prevent marshmallows or meringue from burning on top?

Light, sugary toppings like marshmallows and meringue take on color in just seconds because they sit so close to the heating element. My best advice is to give the dessert its full time without the topping, and only add the marshmallows during the very last 1-2 minutes under close supervision.
