Default How do I change the cell padding in excel?

You want the whitespace at the top or bottom of the cells?

To maintain Autofit and have whitespace you can add an ALT + ENTER ahead of or
behind the text.

Try this.

Select a cell with autofit row.

F2 to edit.

Point to start of text and hit ALT + ENTER to add a blank line.

Also make sure the cell is set to "Wrap Text"

If you have a great whack to do, a macro could be provided.
