Cook techniques
Using the Air Fryer
The air fryer allows you to make cookies with a crispy exterior and soft, chewy interior without the need for traditional baking.
Mixing Ingredients
Ensure that the peanut butter, sugar, and egg are combined thoroughly to achieve a smooth batter before forming the cookies.
Shaping Cookies
Roll the cookie dough into balls and flatten slightly before placing them in the air fryer for optimal cooking.
Temperature Settings
Preheat the air fryer to the recommended temperature to ensure even cooking of the cookies.
Batch Cooking
Depending on your air fryer size, you may need to cook in batches to avoid overcrowding and ensure each cookie bakes evenly.
