Servings: 1 muffin
Ingredients

Instructions
- Split the English muffins in half using a kitchen knife or a paring knife. You can also separate the two pieces using a fork.

Notes
General
- Estimated calories are for one English muffin with no toppings.
- Use tongs to remove the English muffin from the air fryer to avoid burning your fingers.
- Air fryers can vary in size and temperature. Be sure to check your English muffin early if your air fryer runs hot. If your English muffin is not completely toasted by 4 minutes, let it cook for another minute or so.
Storage and Reheating
- Fridge Toasted English muffins will only remain crispy for about 30 minutes in the refrigerator. If you store it in an airtight container, you may prolong its crispiness for about 24 hours.
- Freezer I do not recommend freezing already toasted English muffins. You can, however, freeze untoasted English muffins for about 3 months.
- Reheating To reheat toasted English muffins from the fridge, you can put them in the air fryer for a few minutes until they are warmed through.
- From Frozen To reheat frozen English muffins, you can thaw them at room temperature, or place them in the microwave, unwrapped, for about 30 seconds, then toast the English muffins.
