[Recipes] Air Fryer GF Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies – The Ultimate Guilt-Free Treat

Yields: 2 dozen | Prep Time: 10 minutes | Total Time: 30 minutes | Calories per Cookie: 91
Ingredients
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- ⅓ cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- ½ tsp baking soda
- Pinch of kosher salt
- ⅓ cup semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Step 1: Make the Dough
- Whisk the egg in a medium basin until fully beaten.
- Include salt, baking soda, vanilla, brown sugar, and peanut butter. Stir for roughly 15 seconds, or until the mixture thickens somewhat and combines.
- Incorporate chocolate chunks by folding.
Step 2: Form the Cookies
- Shape the dough into 1-inch balls—roughly 1 tablespoon each.
- Carefully press each ball into a 1½-inch wide disk.
- Set on a dish as you get the air fryer ready.
Step 3: Air fry the cookies
- Cover your air-fryer basket with foil, leaving a 1–2 inch overhang on two opposing sides for simple lifting.
- Place cookies in the basket in batches, roughly ½ inch apart.
- Cook until deeply golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes at 350°F.
Step 4: Serve and Cool
- Gently raise the foil with the cookies out of the basket; foil will be hot.
- About five minutes on the foil will help cookies to cool and firm up.
- Move to a wire rack to finish cooling.
- These cookies make excellent snacks or lunch box additions.
- Craving more chocolate? Before air frying, sprinkle some chips on top.
- No air fryer available? About 8 to 10 minutes at 350°F will bake them in the oven.
