Air Fryer Chocolate Pound Cake

Indulging in a slice of rich chocolate pound cake has never been easier, thanks to the marvels of the air fryer. This delightful dessert combines the dense, moist texture of a traditional pound cake with the convenience of a quicker cooking method. Using cocoa powder for a deep chocolate flavour, and just a hint of vanilla, this air fryer version remains irresistible warm or at room temperature.

The process begins with creaming butter and sugar until light and fluffy, then seamlessly incorporating eggs one at a time. The dry ingredients, including self-raising flour, are gently folded in to maintain that beautifully indulgent texture. Once the batter is prepared, it’s poured into a suitable air fryer-safe loaf tin.

Set to a moderate temperature, the air fryer works its magic, circulating hot air to bake the cake to perfection. In under an hour, you’ll have a beautifully risen, glossy chocolate pound cake, ready to be drizzled with a simple chocolate glaze or served with a dollop of clotted cream. This air fryer chocolate pound cake is a surefire way to satisfy any sweet tooth, all while saving time and energy in the kitchen. Perfect for an afternoon tea or a cheeky dessert!
