Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 4 tablespoon Nestle® Milo
- 3 tablespoon All-Purpose Flour
- 1 tablespoon Granulated Sugar
Wet Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon Water
- 3 tablespoon Vegetable Oil
- 1 Egg
Instructions
- Preheat Air Fryer: Begin by preheating your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 3 minutes to ensure the perfect cooking temperature for the lava cake.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine 4 tablespoons of Nestle® Milo, 3 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, and 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar. Stir them together until evenly blended.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Add 1 tablespoon water, 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, and 1 egg to the dry mixture. Mix thoroughly until the batter becomes smooth and homogeneous.
- Prepare Ramekin: Grease a ramekin with a bit of oil or butter and line the bottom with parchment paper to prevent sticking and facilitate easy removal.
- Transfer Batter: Pour the batter into the prepared ramekin, spreading it evenly to ensure consistent cooking.
- Air Fry the Cake: Place the ramekin inside the preheated air fryer. Cook at 400°F (200°C) for 8 to 10 minutes until the edges are set but the center remains soft and molten.
- Cool and Unmold: Let the lava cake cool for 1 minute. Then, carefully remove the cake from the ramekin and invert it onto a serving plate.
- Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle extra Milo powder on top for an added burst of chocolatey flavor. Serve immediately and enjoy the warm, gooey delight!
Notes
- Greasing the ramekin and lining with parchment paper helps prevent the cake from sticking and makes removal easier.
- Cooking time may vary slightly depending on your air fryer model; check at 8 minutes and adjust if needed.
- For a richer flavor, you may add a small piece of chocolate in the center before air frying to create an extra molten core.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the perfect lava cake texture; it will firm up as it cools.
- This recipe makes a single-serving cake; double or triple the ingredients to make more cakes.
