Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Base
Grease a 1.5-litre oven-safe dish that fits in your air fryer.
Mix the golden syrup, lemon zest, lemon juice, and breadcrumbs, then spread evenly over the base of the dish.
Step 2: Make the Sponge Batter
In a bowl, beat together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Gently fold in the flour and milk until combined.
Step 3: Air Fry the Sponge
Preheat the air fryer to 320°F (160°C) for 3–5 minutes.
Spoon the sponge mixture over the syrup layer, spreading it evenly.
Cover loosely with foil to prevent excessive browning.
Air fry at 320°F (160°C) for 30–35 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the sponge comes out clean.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy
Let the sponge cool for 5 minutes, then carefully invert onto a serving plate so the syrup drizzles over the top.
Serve warm with custard, cream, or ice cream.
