💡 Pro Tips
- ✓Drain tuna completely and press with paper towels to remove excess moisture, as even 1-2 tablespoons of residual liquid will create a soggy, dense bread that won't rise properly.ingredient1-2 tablespoons excess moisture
- ✓Use room temperature eggs and blend for exactly 60-90 seconds to create proper emulsification between the tuna oils and egg proteins, which acts as the binding agent in this flourless bread.technique60-90 seconds
- ✓Preheat your air fryer to 180°C for 3-5 minutes before adding the mixture, as the immediate heat shock activates the baking powder's leavening reaction within the first 2 minutes of cooking.timing3-5 minutes preheat
- ✓Use a metal tin rather than silicone for better heat conduction in the air fryer, reducing cooking time by 2-3 minutes and creating a firmer crust through the Maillard reaction at 180°C.equipment2-3 minutes faster
- ✓Check doneness at 12 minutes first, as the high protein content from tuna can cause rapid overcooking, leading to a rubbery texture once internal temperature exceeds 75°C.timing75°C internal temp
