One-Banana Air Fryer Banana Bread

This month’s recipe comes from Road to Nowhere AU, and it’s a sweet little lifesaver for when you’ve got just one ripe banana left on the bench. 

Their easy air fryer banana bread is the ultimate “make-something-from-nothing” snack, ideal for those days when supplies are low, but cravings are high. You don’t need a full kitchen, just a few pantry staples and a trusty air fryer. Perfect with a morning cuppa or as an afternoon pick-me-up!

Ingredients: 

• 1 ripe banana (mashed well) 
• 1 egg 
• ¼ cup melted butter (or oil) 
• ¼ cup sugar (brown, white, honey, or maple) 
• ½ tbsp vanilla extract or cinnamon sugar 
• 1 cup self-raising flour 
• Pinch of salt
  
  

Optional: handful of choc chips, nuts, or extra cinnamon sugar 

Method  

Step 1: Preheat air fryer to 170°C. Line a small loaf tin (they use the smallest Flat Stacks oven container). 

Step 2: In a bowl, mash banana and whisk in egg, melted butter, sugar, and vanilla/cinnamon. 

Step 3: Add flour and salt, stir until just combined, don’t overmix! 

Step 4: Fold in any extras like choc chips or nuts.

Step 5: Pour into your lined tin and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until golden and a skewer comes out clean.

Step 6: Cool slightly before slicing. Enjoy warm or store for later (if it lasts that long!).
