Method
- 1
Heat the air fryer to 160C. Put 8 silicone or paper muffin cases (the sturdy kind) into the basket, in two batches if needed.
- 2
Mash the bananas in a large bowl. Beat in the egg, sugar, oil, milk and vanilla.
- 3
Fold in the flour, oats, cinnamon and salt until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips if using. Do not overmix.
- 4
Spoon the mixture into the cases, filling them about three quarters full.
- 5
Cook for 14 to 16 minutes, until risen and golden and a skewer comes out clean. Cook in two batches if your air fryer is small.
15 min - 6
Cool in the cases for 5 minutes, then move to a wire rack.
