Indulge in the delightful simplicity of Flaky Air Fryer Strawberry Hand Pies, a charming twist on a classic dessert that's perfect for any occasion. These easy air fryer desserts combine the irresistible sweetness of ripe strawberries with a perfectly flaky, golden crust, making them an ideal treat for both kids and adults.

Simply prepare the filling by tossing fresh strawberries with a hint of sugar and a splash of lemon juice to enhance their natural flavour. While the filling rests, roll out your pastry, cut it into circles, and spoon the fragrant mixture onto one half of each circle. A quick fold and a gentle crimp around the edges seal in all that juicy goodness.

Pop them into the air fryer for a mere 10 minutes, and you'll be rewarded with beautifully golden hand pies that are crisp on the outside and bursting with sweet strawberry goodness on the inside. Serve warm, perhaps with a dusting of icing sugar or a dollop of clotted cream, and watch as they vanish from the plate in no time. These hand pies not only satisfy your sweet tooth but also showcase the ease and convenience of air fryer baking, making them a delightful addition to any dessert table.

Delight in the delightful simplicity of baking a classic Strawberry Shortcake with your Ninja Air Fryer, an innovative kitchen appliance that makes this treat even easier to prepare. Begin by whipping up a light sponge cake batter, using flour, sugar, baking powder, and a dash of salt, combined with eggs and melted butter for that rich flavour. Pour the mixture into a greased cake tin that fits in your air fryer basket, and air fry at a moderate temperature until golden brown and springy to the touch.

While your sponge cools, prepare the luscious filling. Whip fresh cream until it forms soft peaks, and mix in a hint of vanilla for extra sweetness. For the strawberries, hulled and sliced, toss them with a sprinkle of sugar to release their natural juices.

Once the sponge is cooled, slice it in half, layering the whipped cream and strawberries generously in between. Top with the remaining sponge, and finish with a dollop of cream and a sprinkle of fresh strawberries for a stunning presentation. In just a fraction of the time it would typically take, your air-fried Strawberry Shortcake is ready to delight family and friends—a perfect dessert for any occasion!
