- 2
Add flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon, stirring until just combined with no dry streaks remaining.
- 3
Pour batter into a greased 6-inch round pan or small loaf pan that fits your air fryer, filling no more than two-thirds full.
- 4
Top with chopped walnuts and a sprinkle of raw sugar if desired.
- 5
Air fry at 310°F for 30-35 minutes, covering loosely with foil after 20 minutes to prevent over-browning.
- 6
Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack.
Tip: The lower temperature is key for banana bread in an air fryer — it allows the center to cook through without burning the top. The riper your bananas, the sweeter and more moist the bread will be.
