Air Fryer Peanut Butter Cookies
These Air fryer peanut butter cookies are a deliciously salty and sweet treat, easy to make, and take only 6 minutes to cook in the air fryer.
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup Peanut butter Creamy or crunchy. All natural or organic.
- 1 egg large
Optional Ingredients:
- 1 TBS semolina I like to add semolina flour for a bit of extra crunch
- 1/2 cup Sugar Feel free to add sugar or granulated sweetener of your choice. I use Monk Fruit Gold.
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt to taste Pinch of. If desired.
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 350F/175C for 2 minutes
- In a medium bowl mix peanut butter and egg until well combined and looks like cookie dough.
- Roll about one inch of cookie dough into a ball.
- Place the balls onto the air fryer tray (basket) lined with parchment paper.
- Using a fork, flatten a ball into a cookie shape and leave the fork marks.
- Airfry mode at 350F/175C and bake the cookies for 6 minutes, flipping halfway. 3 minutes per side.
- Remove cookies from the air fryer and let them cool for a few minutes.
- Add a dollop of jelly to the top and you are instantly in peanut butter jelly heaven without the bread. Optional.
Notes
Add-ons
These Air-fried Peanut butter cookies are great on their own, but if you want to mix things up, you can use the basic recipe as a foundation and add in different optional toppings. Chocolate chips, chopped nuts, sea salt, or even a drizzle of caramel sauce can take these cookies to the next level.
Add a dollop of jelly on top of cookie and you are instantly in peanut butter jelly heaven without the bread.
Semolina: While it’s completely optional, I like to add a tablespoon for an extra crunch and a nutty taste. Semolina, a coarse flour made from durum wheat, gives peanut butter cookies a slightly crispy and chewy texture. it can help accentuate the nutty flavor while also creating a satisfying crunch.
