What is Instant Yeast?
- Yeast and instant yeast are types of dry, fine-grained, brown-colored yeast.
- In terms of properties: regular yeast needs to be activated with warm water from 32 – 38 degrees Celsius before it can be used. However, with instant yeast, you do not need to activate it and can mix it directly with the flour.
- In addition, instant yeast has significantly more gas than regular yeast, which can help the dough rise faster by 50%, shortening the proofing time.
- You can buy this type of yeast at baking supply stores, large supermarkets, or on e-commerce websites.

How to make sweet bread using an air fryer
-
Mix the dough
First, add 130ml of unsweetened fresh milk, a little salt, and 15gr of sugar into a bowl and mix well.
Next, put 190gr of all-purpose flour and 3gr of instant yeast into a large bowl and mix well. Then, add the milk mixture, 25gr of melted unsalted butter, and 30gr of condensed milk, and continue to mix until the ingredients stick together, forming a slightly moist dough mixture.
Finally, cover the bowl tightly and let it rest for 15 minutes.
-
Folding the dough
After letting the dough rest for 15 minutes, use your hands to fold the dough from the outside towards the center about 10 – 12 times. Next, cover it tightly and let it rest for another 15 minutes.
Then, fold the dough in a similar manner for the second time from 10 – 12 times and let it rest for 15 minutes. After that, repeat the folding process one more time and let it rest for an additional 15 minutes, and that’s it.
Tip:- The dough after the first proofing must achieve a soft and pliable texture; if the dough is dry at this point, add a little water or milk until the dough becomes soft and pliable.
- To check if the dough has proofed properly, press your finger deep into the dough; if the indentation remains, it has proofed correctly.

Baking the cake
Preheat the air fryer to 155 – 160 degrees Celsius for 10 minutes.
Whisk 1 egg yolk, strain it through a sieve for smoothness, and then brush a thin layer on top of the cake.
Next, cover the cake with aluminum foil and bake for 20 – 22 minutes at 155 degrees Celsius. After 22 minutes, remove the foil and continue baking for another 5 – 7 minutes until the top of the cake is golden.
Once the cake is fully baked, remove it from the mold and place it on a slotted tray, then brush a layer of melted unsalted butter on top and allow it to cool completely!
Tip:
- To help the cake rise high, do not wrap the aluminum foil tightly, leave some space!
- Because the wind from the air fryer is quite strong, you need to secure the foil down to the bottom of the mold to prevent it from blowing away during baking.
