What Is An Air Fryer?

An air fryer is a popular small appliance that allows you to cook in a healthier way by circulating hot air up to 400° around your food. I love my air fryer because it’s so versatile and easy to clean. Over the years, I have cooked main dishes, sides, breakfast, desserts, appetizers, and even holiday recipes in my air fryer.

Why Should You Make Cookies In An Air Fryer?

You may be wondering about the advantages of making cookies in an air fryer. After all, an oven works perfectly fine for baking cookies. However, there may be times when you don’t want to make a large batch of cookies. 

The air fryer is the perfect solution for making smaller batches when you are craving a sweet treat. The next time you make cookies, instead of baking them, place the cookie sheet with the 1-inch cookie balls in the freezer.

Once frozen, remove and place the cookies in a ziplock freezer bag. When you are in the mood for a quick afternoon or late-night snack, pop a few cookies in your air fryer for a warm and gooey dessert.

Some other reasons to make air fryer cookies are:

  • Since you are making smaller batches there aren’t so many cookies to store so they won’t go stale as quickly.
  • You can enjoy delicious homemade cookies in the air fryer any time of the year even on the hottest days of summer without heating up your home as an oven would.
  • They are a quick and easy snack option that even kids can make. 

Here are 12 easy air fryer cookie recipes to try. They are the perfect way to enjoy a sweet snack with minimal time and effort.
