Description

Discover the perfect recipe for air fryer peanut butter cookies! Learn tips for achieving a crispy outside and chewy inside. Quick, easy, and irresistibly delicious!


Ingredients

  • 1 large egg, room temperature, beaten
  • 1 cup (240 ml) sugar
  • 1 cup (240 ml) creamy peanut butter


Instructions

  1. In a spacious mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, beaten egg, and sugar until well blended.
  2. Using a tablespoon, portion out the dough and shape it into round balls. Use a fork to gently press down on the tops, creating a crisscross pattern by pressing once and then again at a 90-degree angle.
  3. Set the air fryer to a temperature of 350°F. Place the cookie dough balls in a single layer, maintaining a 1-inch gap between each, on nonstick foil or a well-oiled air fryer tray. Cook in batches until they are slightly golden, about five to six minutes.
  4. Let the cookies rest on the tray for approximately 10 minutes to cool a bit, then transfer them to wire racks to finish cooling. Remember, air fryer cooking durations can differ significantly based on the brand and model, so monitor the cookies for a golden-brown hue at the edges.

Notes
