Ingredients

  • 250 g smooth peanut butter
  • 250 g white caster sugar
  • 1 egg

Instructions

  • Mix together the ingredients until you've got a smooth consistency. Try not to overwork the mixture.
  • Line your air fryer basket with baking paper. You can use reusable baking paper if you havve this instead.
  • (If you're going to make multiple batches like I do then you'll want to measure the baking paper before you heat up the air fryer, cut your paper and then you'll have it all to hand ready to line with the cookie dough before placing into the basket carefully to avoid burning yourself).
  • Place walnut sized balls of the dough on to the baking paper.
  • Press down lightly with a fork or spoon, depending on whether you want the little cut indentations or not.
  • Air fry at 200C (400F) for 4 minutes. Check at the 2 minute mark just to ensure the dough balls haven't moved together as air flow can be very strong in some air fryer models.
  • You want to remove these when they are just lightly golden brown to avoid burning them.
  • Depending on your air fryer model you may want to add another 1-2 minutes of cook time. I use the OL750UK and this heats up VERY fast!
  • Remove from the air fryer basket and leave to cool on a wire rack. I like to just remove the parchment paper using a spatula, carefully, and then individually transfer to the wire rack from there. This works great when cooking multiple batches, which I usually am.
