I made deliciously fluffy cake in an air fryer, and these 7 tricks will help you do the same in 15 minutes

Air fryers are fantastic for preparing treats like chicken wings, bacon, and crispy shrimp, but did you know you can also use one to make deliciously moist cakes? You can, and it's much quicker and easier than you might expect.

You don't need to use a recipe specifically designed for air fryers either, provided you make a few tweaks along the way. I made a three-tier air fryer cake using Mary Berry's Victoria sponge recipe, a classic all-in-one with two eggs, two teaspoons of baking powder, and 9oz / 250g each of butter, caster sugar, and self-raising flour. I baked it in a Cosori TurboBlaze 6L, which is a compact single-drawer air fryer, but any model with a bake mode will work.
