Equipment

- 2 English Muffins, separated in two
- 1 tablespoon butter
Instructions
- Preheat an air fryer to 350℉ (176℃). Then, split the English muffins in two.
- Line the halves into the air fryer basket and cook for 3-5 minutes. Check for doneness at the 3-minute mark.
- Brush the halves with butter, and enjoy!
Notes
Expert Tips:
- Twist and turn the English muffins to split them in half or use a fork to pry them apart rather than cutting them with a knife; this preserves the texture of the muffins so the butter can pool into all those nooks and crannies.
- There should be enough space in the air fryer basket to circulate the hot air, so don't overcrowd the basket or overlap the muffins. My air fryer can hold two English muffins at one time.
- Toasting plain English muffins in the air fryer doesn't require a long cooking time. However, if you make a breakfast sandwich by adding eggs, bacon, and cheese to the English muffin, increase the cooking time to 4-6 minutes and check them frequently. Remove the sandwiches from the air fryer basket once the cheese has melted and the English muffins are visibly crispy.
