\"These small-batch fudgy air-fryer brownies come together so quickly, and no oven is required. Top with nuts or powdered sugar for a quick homemade treat.\" \u2014Recipe contributor Rashanda Cobbins, Milwaukee, Wisconsin<\/em><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n \"With my busy family of five, I'm always burning things in the oven because I get pulled into other tasks. But the air fryer, with its time-controlled powers, has been a godsend. Now when the inevitable family emergency pops up, I don't have to worry about setting off the smoke alarm! My British heritage means I grew up on tea and Bakewell tarts. This easy rendition uses similar components of the iconic tart, but it's easier for bustling families to make. You can use any type of jam you want!\" \u2014Recipe contributor Kristin Bowers, Gilbert, Arizona<\/em><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n \"I love to get fried Oreos at the county fair every summer. Since this version cooks up quickly in the air fryer, I can enjoy my favorite summer treat all year round! Lemon zest and lemon yogurt add a burst of flavor to the batter, and a dusting of powdered sugar makes for a pretty presentation.\" \u2014Recipe contributor Jennifer Gilbert, Brighton, Michigan<\/em><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n \"I came up with this quick and tasty treat when my daughter had a sleepover. I whipped these together in no time, and the girls devoured them!\" \u2014Recipe contributor Jennifer Stowell, Deep River, Iowa<\/em><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n \"These luscious air-fryer cupcakes smell wonderful while they cook. If you have the drawer-type air fryer, you'll need to use individual silicone cupcake liners. If you have a bigger air fryer, a 6-cup muffin tin should fit in nicely.\" \u2014Recipe contributor Mary Bilyeu, Ann Arbor, Michigan<\/em><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n \"This air-fryer cheesecake is something I've been making and perfecting for years. My daughter insisted it be served at her wedding.\" \u2014Recipe contributor Howard Koch, Lima, Ohio<\/em><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n \"My family can't get enough of bacon and peanut butter, so I created these quick and easy cornbread muffins using ingredients I regularly keep stocked in my pantry and fridge. The streusel topping adds a delicious sweet and salty crunch!\" \u2014Recipe contributor Shannon Kohn, Summerville, South Carolina<\/em><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n \"This cinnamon treat reminds me of baklava; but with only a few easy ingredients, it's a fraction of the work. My Aunt Adele shared the recipe with me, and I think of her whenever I make it. It's one of my favorite air-fryer snacks!\" \u2014Recipe contributor Sue Falk, Sterling Heights, Michigan<\/em><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n \"This air-fryer bread pudding is a fun dish because the chocolate makes it different from traditional recipes. It's a rich, comforting dessert.\" \u2014Recipe contributor Mildred Sherrer, Fort Worth, Texas<\/em><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n \"I first served these fresh and fruity air-fryer wontons as an appetizer at a summer luau. My family and friends now enjoy this fried wonton recipe for dessert at special occasions throughout the year.\" \u2014Recipe contributor Melissa Birdsong, Gilbert, South Carolina<\/em><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n \"These air-fryer apple fritters are healthier than old-fashioned fritters, yet they are still just as delicious. They're a quick and easy dessert that includes a scrumptious brown butter glaze!\" \u2014Recipe contributor Alyssa Castriotta, North Scituate, Rhode Island<\/em><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n \"You'll only need a few ingredients to make this toasty cinnamon treat. Each bite consists of crisp pieces of apples and crunchy homemade granola. This recipe allows for versatility with the apple flavor, so you can go from something sweet to something tart.\" \u2014<\/em>Taste Recipes Test Kitchen<\/em><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/a><\/div>
