How To Cook Refrigerated Cookie Dough In The Air Fryer
cookies
Learn how to cook your cookie dough in your air fryer. Air fryer cookies are a quick and easy way to cook the perfect small batch of cookies.
Equipment
- parchment paper or silicone mat
Ingredients
- 6 piece Tollhouse Cookie Dough from a 24 cookie pack of dough, or homemade cookie dough
Instructions
- Break the cookie dough into pieces. Most air fryers will have room for about 6 cookies.
- Roll each piece into a ball. If using your own cookie dough, use about 1 tablespoon of cookie dough.
- Place parchment paper on the bottom of your air fryer basket/tray. Poke holes in the paper to allow air to pass through. Do not cut paper a lot larger than you need.
- Place cookie dough ball(s) on parchment paper and squish down slightly.
- Cook in air fryer at 300°F for 7-8 minutes. If you are cooking less cookies you will need less cooking time.
- Remove the cookies from the air fryer and let them cool on a wire rack for a couple of minutes before eating them.
Notes
We tested these cookies on parchment paper and without. Without paper some of the cookie will drip down out of the air fryer basket. We recommend using parchment paper. It helps the cookie spread out as well.
Air fryers cook by blowing hot air around. If your parchment paper doesn't have holes in it the parchment will roll up and your cookies might become deformed.
You can also use parchment paper or silicone mats made for air fryers or even aluminum foil, but that's not preferred.
