Certainly! Making chocolate chip cookies in an air fryer is a quick and convenient way to enjoy freshly baked cookies. Here’s a simple recipe:
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions:
- Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (180°C).
- Cream Butter and Sugars: In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add Egg and Vanilla: Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Mix until well combined.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
- Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
- Form Cookie Dough Balls: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of cookie dough and roll them into balls. Place the cookie dough balls on a parchment-lined air fryer tray, leaving space between each.
- Air Fry: Place the tray in the preheated air fryer and air fry at 350°F (180°C) for 8-10 minutes or until the cookies are golden brown on the edges.
- Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the tray for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy: Once cooled, enjoy your air-fried chocolate chip cookies!
Remember that air fryer temperatures and cooking times may vary, so keep an eye on the cookies as they bake to prevent overcooking. This recipe yields delicious, soft-centered chocolate chip cookies with a slightly crispy exterior.
