Equipment
- air fryer
- wire rack
Ingredients
- 1 cup Creamy Peanut Butter
- 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1/4 cup Light Brown Sugar, packed
- 1 Large Egg
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
- 1/4 tsp Fine Salt
- 1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Stir vigorously with a wooden spoon or spatula until completely smooth and well blended.
- Add the egg, vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt. Mix until fully incorporated. Then add the flour and stir just until a soft, scoopable dough forms. Do not overmix.
- Scoop rounded tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Press each ball gently with the tines of a fork in a crosshatch pattern to flatten slightly to about 1/2 inch thick.
- Preheat the air fryer to 325 degrees F for 2 minutes. Cut a piece of parchment paper to fit the air fryer basket.
- Place the cookies on the parchment in the air fryer basket, leaving about 1 inch of space between each one. Cook in batches as needed.
- Air fry at 325 degrees F for 7 to 8 minutes, until the edges look set but the centers still appear slightly soft. They will firm up as they cool.
- Let the cookies cool in the basket for 3 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. They will be soft and chewy in the center with lightly crisp edges once fully cooled.
