How To Toast English Muffins In The Air Fryer
To start with you will need to preheat the air fryer to 400°F/200°C. It is important to preheat the air fryer to ensure consistent cooking.
Before cooking, you will want to split the English muffins in half. There is often a groove around the outside of the muffin which gives you an indication of where to cut.
Once the air fryer has preheated, add in your English muffin halves with the cut side facing upwards. If you plan to toast multiple English muffins, make sure each muffin half lays flat in the air fryer basket. Overcrowding can lead to uneven toasting.
Cook in the air fryer for 3-7 minutes, until desired level of toasting is achieved. The exact amount of cooking time is going to vary depending on how toasted you like your muffins and the model of air fryer used.
Serve warm or cold, along with your favorite spreads and/or toppings.
