Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions
 

Prepare Pan:

  • Grease your air fryer pan or line it with parchment paper.

Mix Wet Ingredients:

  • In a bowl, whisk together peanut butter, melted butter, milk, egg, and vanilla until smooth.

Add Dry Ingredients:

  • Stir in the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until fully combined.

Pour and Level:

  • Pour the batter into your prepared pan and spread evenly.

Air Fry:

  • Set your air fryer to 320°F (160°C) and cook for 18-20 minutes. Check with a toothpick—if it comes out clean, it’s ready!

Cool:

  • Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then flip it onto a plate to cool completely.

Serve:

  • Top with whipped cream, chopped peanuts, or chocolate sauce if you like, and enjoy!

Notes

  • Sweet tooth? Add a little extra sugar to the batter if you like it sweeter. I sometimes add a bit more for my kids since they love that sugary taste!
  • Go nuts! If you’ve got some chopped peanuts lying around, sprinkle them on top for a little crunch.
  • Chocolate lovers unite! Toss in some chocolate chips for that peanut butter and chocolate combo that’s always a hit.
