Description
A quick and fluffy no-yeast bread made in the air fryer, perfect for sandwiches, toast, or enjoying warm with butter. Ready in under an hour using simple pantry staples, with a soft interior and golden crust.
Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1 cup warm water (about 110°F / 43°C)
2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a large mixing bowl.
- Add the warm water and olive oil, stirring until a dough begins to form.
- Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until smooth and slightly elastic.
- Shape the dough into a loaf. Use a small loaf pan that fits your air fryer or shape it free-form and place on parchment paper in the air fryer basket.
- Preheat the air fryer to 320°F (160°C) for 3 to 5 minutes.
- Place the loaf in the air fryer and cook for 20 to 25 minutes, until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove the bread and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing.
Notes
Add dried herbs like rosemary or thyme for extra flavor.
For a sweet version, add more sugar, cinnamon, and swap olive oil with melted coconut oil.
Store at room temperature in an airtight container for 2 days or freeze sliced.
Reheat slices in a toaster or air fryer at 300°F for 2–3 minutes.
Ensure bread is fully cooled before slicing to avoid a doughy center.
