Ingredients

Scale

Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (195°C).

  4. Brush half of the honey mustard glaze evenly over the top of each salmon fillet.
  5. Place the salmon in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
  6. Air fry for 8 minutes.
  7. Remove the basket and brush the remaining glaze over the salmon.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the glaze.
  • Adjust cooking time based on the thickness of your salmon fillets.
  • Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket; cook in batches if necessary for best results.
