It may be that I have been using the air fryer more recently. Some friends left a message asking me: Can the air fryer be used for baking? Simple baking is no problem. Yesterday I shared an air fryer to make cakes. Today I will share an air fryer to make bread! My universal recipe is really easy to use. The bread produced is very fragrant and soft, and the children also like to eat it.
Today I used two air fryers to make two types of bread. I have done it before, but I didn’t take any pictures of the process carefully. I personally think it's okay to make it, but I don't recommend making large bread. After all, the space of the air fryer is much smaller than that of the oven.
In addition, don’t be too troublesome. Since the air fryer function is not designed for baking, when baking bread, it is best to turn the bread over halfway and manually help the bottom of the bread to heat.
The universal recipe I used is the bread machine one-touch bread recipe that I have shared many times before. It could have been made without oil, but considering the softness of the finished bread, I still added butter . If there is no butter, you can use corn oil or other cooking oil without special flavor instead, but the taste of butter will be better. Friends who want to see how to make it, please continue reading!
[Chocolate Bread]
Ingredients required: 160g pure milk, 1 egg, 1g salt, 25g sugar, high-gluten flour 60g, high-sugar resistant yeast powder g, 15g animal butter, appropriate amount of chocolate sauce;
chocolate sauce bread The detailed method:
1. Prepare the ingredients and soften the butter in advance for later use.
2. Put the ingredients into the bucket of the bread machine in sequence, the order is milk, eggs, salt, sugar, high-gluten flour, and high-sugar resistant yeast powder. Start the bread machine toast program or one-click bread program. The kneading process requires 30 minutes. Knead for about 10 minutes. After the dough is smooth, add softened butter and continue kneading until the dough is smooth, soft and elastic, and the inner barrel of the bread machine is clean;
3. Place the kneaded dough in the inner barrel of the bread machine to ferment. Take it out after it has doubled in size. The dough will be a little soft. In order to prevent sticking and facilitate shaping, you can apply some oil on your hands and then touch the dough. Divide the dough into 6 equal-sized doughs and form a group of 3. Round them and set aside;
4. Roll the dough into a round cake, take a piece of baking paper, put one piece of dough on the paper, spread chocolate sauce on the dough, stack one piece of dough, then spread chocolate sauce, stack the last piece of dough on top On the top;
5. Place a small object in the middle of the dough. I placed a decorating tip . Cut out 16 small corners of equal size around the piping tip, form two groups, twist them into 8 petals, then remove the piping tip, and a bread embryo is ready.
6. Put the bread embryo and oil paper into the air fryer and ferment for about 25 minutes. The weather is hot now and the fermentation speed is relatively fast. After it has doubled in size, sift some flour on the surface with a sieve and start the air fryer.
7. Set the temperature of the air fryer to 140 degrees and bake for 20 minutes;
8. The heating tube of the air fryer is above the food. The space of the air fryer is relatively small. There is no heating place at the bottom, and there is oil paper on it, so baking During the process, the surface will color quickly, but the bottom will not color and will not be baked easily, so after 20 minutes, turn the bread over and continue baking for 10 minutes. .
Regarding time, because I am also experimenting, I currently bake it at 140 degrees for 20 minutes. After turning it over, bake it for another 10 minutes. The color is slightly darker, but the bread is definitely cooked. It can be adjusted according to the state of the bread during production. Personally, it may be feasible to shorten the time or lower the temperature.
9. There are also 3 pieces of dough, which are made into simple long strips. Roll the dough out into a long oval or rectangular shape. Spread chocolate sauce in the middle, roll it up from one side, and roll it thinner at the end for convenience. Tighten to keep the shape.
10. The rolled bread embryo is also lined with baking oil paper, placed in the air fryer, and fermented for about 25 minutes. After fermentation until doubled in size, use a sieve to sift the flour onto the bread embryo, and then use scissors or a knife to score Exit and bake in the air fryer;
11. Set the air fryer to 140 degrees, bake for 20 minutes, turn the bread over after 20 minutes, continue to bake for 10 minutes, and the bread is ready.
Take out the baked bread and put it on the drying net to dissipate heat. The surface of the freshly baked bread is still a little hard and has a slight residual temperature after dissipating heat. Put it in a fresh-keeping bag and seal it for storage. The surface of the bread will soften and the taste will be better.
The flower-shaped bread is quite soft when you break off a small petal and the surface has softened. The chocolate filling inside is spread thinly and the layers are pretty good. This style of bread is more beautiful, and children also like it. The fillings inside can be adjusted according to your own preferences, and the bean paste filling is also good.
The color of the bread feels a bit heavy. Friends who like to experiment can adjust it according to their own air fryer to bake the color they like.
In addition, this recipe is universal. It can be used to make one-touch bread, or it can be shaped into buns of different shapes. It can be baked in an air fryer or baked in an oven. The oven has a large space and can be baked. The effect will be better. If you also like making bread, give it a try!
