Ragi & Coconut Bread Air Fryer Version
This one is from my old Tea-time Snack Series 🌸 I couldn’t continue that series regularly, but today I made one of those recipes — super simple and so good!
It’s a Ragi + Coconut + Wheat Flour Bread, soft, flavorful and perfect with evening chai ☕️. You can bake it in the air fryer, oven, or even in a cooker. In the cooker, just add salt or sand at the bottom, place a stand, put your cake tin on top, remove the gasket and whistle, and cook on low heat for about 45 minutes.
Trust me, you will love the taste, flavor, and everything about this bread 🥥🍞
Ingredients (makes 1 small loaf):
• Ragi flour – ½ cup (about 60 g)
• Whole wheat flour – 1 cup (about 120 g)
• Baking powder – 1 ½ tsp
• Baking soda – ¼ tsp
• Salt – a pinch
• Cardamom powder – from 4–5 pods (about ½ tsp)
• Fresh grated coconut – 1 cup (about 80–100 g), divided (¾ cup in batter + ¼ cup for topping)
• Butter – 50 g (softened)
• Cooking cream – 100 ml (or you could do half cream + half milk for lighter texture)
• Coconut Sugar ½ to ¾ cup (depending on sweetness you want)
Method:
1. In a bowl, whisk together butter, sugar until creamy.
2. Add cream and mix well.
3. Stir in ragi flour, wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cardamom.
4. Fold in ¾ cup grated coconut. Batter should be slightly thick but spoonable. If too dry, add 2 – 3 tbsp milk.
5. Pour into a greased air fryer-safe baking dish. Top with remaining coconut.
6. Bake in air fryer at 170 °C for ~30 min, or until a skewer comes out clean.
7. Cool slightly before slicing.
