    Homemade bread is the perfect fix for morning breakfast. Bake air fryer breads over the weekend and enjoy the fresh smell in the entire house. It is healthier to commercial made ones. You can also use the same dough to make a pizza base or just make buns from left over dough when you make a pizza base in an air fryer.  You can also toast frozen bread in air fryer.

    Toasting bread and bagels in air fryer is easier as it heats faster.If you want to reheat bread in air fryer, just preheat it for 3-4 minutes before placing bread in it. Other air fryer snack recipes include Air fryer pasties, air fryer homemade tortilla chips , & chocolate hot cross buns.

    Notes

    To make sure that the buns are super soft, the dough needs to be sticky and a little wet.
    You may replace wholewheat flour with plain flour for plain buns recipe
    , in that case,use 3 cups of plain flour instead of 2.5 cups of wholewheat flour.

    Variation - Air fryer burger buns

    You can make burger buns in similar manner.

    Just roll a piece of dough and place it on the baking tray by placing it on piece of parchment paper. Allow it to rise for 30 minutes or more.

    Variations - Air fryer dinner rolls

    You can choose to add additional flavors to this bread , like I like to add roasted garlic and oregano. 4-6 cloves of garlic and 1 tbsp. of dried oregano

    af garlic bread
    • You can make variations of this easy air fryer recipe.
    • Add some with tutti frutti bread if you like it sweet.
    • You can also add some spices to make your own masala buns with some crushed garlic cloves.
    • You can stuff it with boiled potato masala to make bread rolls or serve it as vada pav.
    • I love warm butter loaded buns with some strawberry preserve or spicy marmalade just like Paddington.
    • You can make your variations of dinner buns by adding some sesame seeds, or chia seeds.
    • You can also make incisions with a sharp knife on top of the bread dough. Create beautiful designs to make air fryer artisan bread recipe.

    Substitutions

    You can use bread flour, rye flour or whole wheat flour to make this recipe. However water and cooking time will vary according to the flour used. You can also line the tray with parchment paper if needed.However I prefer oiled tray as it ensures less wastage and also direct heat on the bread.

    Storage

    Store this perfect loaf of bread in a warm place, at room temperature in an air tight container. If your crusty bread is tough, sprinkle water on top and reheat it in a warm air fryer. You will be surprised it is just as soft just as fresh bread. This will work even with sourdough bread.

    FAQs

    How Do You Know When dough is ready?

    It should spring back when pressed.

    How do you know when buns are cooked?

    Homemade buns should have a hollow sound when you strike it with a thumb at the bottom.

    Why is my bread raw in the middle?

    If your oven is too hot, you might end up with undercooked bread. It can also be raw, if you do not bake it long enough and wait for hollow sound.

    how to toast bread in air fryer ?

    Preheat your air fryer for 2-4 minutes to make your air fryer bread toast. Place the bread in the air fryer basket. Toast it until crisp. Usually takes 3-5 minutes at 180C depending on how you like it. Flip halfway.

    Conclusion: Making air fryer bread with golden crust is both nutritious and therapeutic. Homemade bread recipe with basic ingredients will help you avoid harmful chemicals and preservatives in the commercial packet.
