Air Fryer Peanut Butter Cookies
🕒 The Details
- Prep time: 10 mins 🥣
- Cook time: 8–10 mins 💨
- Yields: About 12 cookies 🍪
🛒 What You’ll Need
- 1 cup Creamy Peanut Butter 🥜
- 1 cup Sugar (or a brown sugar/white sugar mix for extra chew) 🧂
- 1 Large Egg 🥚
- 1 tsp Baking soda
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- A pinch of Sea salt
👩🍳 Let’s Get Baking!
- Mix: In a medium bowl, combine the peanut butter, sugar, and egg. Stir in the baking soda, vanilla extract, and that pinch of sea salt until smooth. 🥣
- Scoop: Roll the dough into 1-inch balls. 🧶
- The Pattern: Place the balls on a piece of parchment paper and use a fork to press a “criss-cross” pattern into the top. This helps them cook evenly! 🍴
- Air Fry: Place the cookies in the air fryer basket (work in batches so they don’t touch!). 💨
- Cook: Air fry at 320°F (160°C) for 8–10 minutes. They will look very soft, but they’ll firm up as they cool! 🌡️
- Cool: Let them sit in the basket for 5 minutes before moving them. This is the hardest part—waiting! ⏳😋
💡 Pro-Tip:
Want to take these to the next level? Press a few chocolate chips or a Reese’s cup into the center right after they come out of the air fryer! 🍫🔥
