Air-Fryer Raspberry and Chocolate Squares

These air-fryer raspberry and chocolate squares are quick, wholesome and wonderfully easy to prepare. Naturally sweetened with ripe bananas and enriched with melty chocolate, they require no added sugar or oil, making them a lighter treat that still tastes indulgent. Spelt flour and oats add fibre and a hearty texture, though regular flour works perfectly well if that’s what you have on hand. You can use dairy-free, milk or dark chocolate depending on your preference. Moist, fruity and ideal for snacks, lunchboxes or a healthier dessert, these squares are ready in just minutes with the help of the air fryer.
