4Preheat a 5.3-litre air fryer to 160°C for 3 minutes.

5Whisk a quarter of the beaten egg into melted Nutella until combined, then fold in ¼ cup self-raising flour. Gently fold in remaining beaten egg in two batches. Pour mixture into pan. Cover pan with a piece of greased foil, then pierce the foil.

6Taking care, pull out the air-fryer pan and basket; place the cake pan in the basket. Slide pan and basket back into appliance. Keep temperature set at 160°C and set timer for 30 minutes; cook until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.

7Remove cake pan from basket. Remove foil and reserve for the second cake. Leave cake in pan for 15 minutes before turning out onto a baking-paper-covered wire rack to cool completely. Peel away the lining paper.

8Repeat steps 1-7 to make a second cake.
