Step 1

Preheat your air fryer to 330 degrees.

Step 2

Prepare the cake mix according to the directions on the back of the cake box.

Step 3

Place three empty paper cupcake liners into the pan you are using in the air fryer. Scoop the batter into each liner filling them 2/3rds of the way full.

Step 4

Set the timer in your air fryer for 6 minutes and bake.

Step 5

At the 6-minute mark, check the cupcakes. Depending on your oven they may be done or may not be. Using your favorite cake tester, test the middle of the cupcakes. If the tester comes out with a little bit of the cupcake on it, they are done. If the tester still has runny batter on it, place the cupcakes back into the air fryer and bake at 3-minute increments until done.

Step 6

Once they are done, remove them carefully from the air fryer.

Step 7

Let them cool and repeat the process over until you have used all of your batter.

Step 8

While the cupcakes are cooling, make the frosting.

Step 9

If you are going to pipe it, then add the frosting into a piping bag with your desired tip and pipe the frosting.
