Ingredients
- 170g porridge oats
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp bicarbonate of soda
- 60ml sunflower oil or melted and cooled coconut oil
- 75g greek yogurt
- 1 banana, mashed
- 1 medium egg
- ½ tsp vanilla bean paste or extract
- 75g golden caster sugar
- 100g peanut butter, crunchy or smooth
- 150g blueberries, defrosted if frozen
For the crumble topping
- 20g porridge oats
- 10ml sunflower oil
- 10g golden caster sugar
Specialist kit
- 8 silicone muffin cases (or paper cases supported by a silicone tray)
Method
- Heat the air fryer to 180°C. Put the 170g oats in a food processor and whizz to the texture of coarse flour. Add the baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and a pinch of salt, then whizz briefly to combine.
- Whisk together the oil, yogurt, banana, egg, vanilla and sugar in a bowl or jug. Add this to the food processor and whizz to combine. Stir in the peanut butter and blueberries. Use an ice cream scoop or two spoons to divide the batter among the muffin cups – they should be three quarters full.
- Stir together the crumble topping ingredients in a small bowl and use to top the muffins.
- Cook in the air fryer for 4 minutes, then lower the temperature to 160°C without opening the basket and bake for 14 minutes more or until a skewer pushed into the centre comes out with just a few damp crumbs. Leave to cool on a wire rack.

Tried this as a newbie to air fryers and found success! I didn’t put the peanut butter in as the batter was already very sludgy but I added some white chocolate chips instead, also used (fresh) raspberries instead of blueberries. Really delicious. Will be saving this recipe.
We’re delighted that you enjoyed this recipe! Fresh raspberries sound like a great addition – thanks for sharing that tip.
