Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
½ cup milk
2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest
For the glaze: ¾ cup confectioners’ sugar, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon lemon zest

Instructions

Begin by preheating your air fryer to 350°F. Grease a 7-inch cake pan and set aside.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate large bowl, beat the sugar and eggs together until light and fluffy. Add the milk, melted butter, lemon juice, and lemon zest and mix until combined. Slowly add the flour mixture and stir until just combined.

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and place in the air fryer. Cook for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool for 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire cooling rack.

To make the glaze, whisk together the confectioners’ sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth. Drizzle over the top of the cake and let sit for 10 minutes before serving.
