Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ⅙ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted melted butter
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup sugar

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, combine the buttermilk, eggs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined. 
  • In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cornmeal. 
  • Pour the buttermilk mixture into the flour mixture and mix until well combined. 
  • Lightly spray your baking pan with nonstick spray and line it with greased parchment paper. 
  • Pour the cornmeal batter into the prepared pan and then place the pan in the air fryer basket. 
  • Air fry at 320 degrees for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean. 
  • If the toothpick is not completely clean after 20 minutes, but the edges of the cornbread are crispy, simply turn off the heat and let the cornbread remain in the air fryer for an additional 10 minutes. This will allow the residual heat to continue cooking the cornbread.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy! 

Notes

Don't overbake the cornbread otherwise, it will turn out super dry and crumbly.
