Ingredients

  • cooking spray

  • ⅓ cup brown sugar

  • 3 ½ tablespoons butter, at room temperature

  • 1 banana, mashed

  • 1 egg

  • 2 tablespoons honey

  • 1 cup self-rising flour

  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 1 pinch salt

Directions

  1. Preheat an air fryer to 320 degrees F (160 degrees C). Spray a small fluted tube pan with cooking spray.

  2. Beat sugar and butter together together in a bowl using an electric mixer until creamy. Combine banana, egg, and honey in a separate bowl. Whisk banana mixture into butter mixture until smooth.

  3. Sift flour, cinnamon, and salt into the combined banana-butter mixture. Mix batter until smooth. Transfer to the prepared pan; level the surface using the back of a spoon.

  4. Place the cake pan in the air fryer basket. Slide the basket into the air fryer and set the timer for 30 minutes. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.

Recipe Tip

This recipe also works well in a toaster oven or regular oven; add 5 minutes to the cook time.
