Air Fryer Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe
Air fryer chocolate chip cookies should be JUST AS GOOD as the ones you make in the oven. Settle for nothing less with this easy, quick, foolproof recipe.
Servings: 20 cookies
Equipment
Ingredients
- 130 g salted butter
- 1 tbsp golden syrup
- 160 g white caster sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 medium free range egg
- 235 g plain white flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 400 g milk chocolate chips
Instructions
- Cut a piece of greaseproof to about the same size as the base of your tray. Fold it in half 3-4 times to create a thin triangle. Make holes with a skewer or hole punch and unfold.
- In a large bowl, beat together the butter, golden syrup and sugar until fluffy.
- Beat in the egg and the vanilla until well combined.
- Add the flour and the baking powder and mix until just combined – you should now have a sticky, light dough.
- Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Divide your dough into 20 portions of dough, rolled into balls. You can eyeball this, or if you want to be super accurate, you can divide the dough into 20 x 50g portions.
- Place the cookie dough balls on a tray in the freezer for 15 minutes until very firm – this will help the cookies hold their shape.
- Place 4 cookie dough balls, evenly spaced in your air fryer basket lined with the holey paper you made earlier. If they look more crowded than in the pictures, you may have a smaller air fryer tray and need to cook fewer at a time.
- Set the air fryer to 140C/285F and bake the cookies for 15 minutes until golden.
- Allow to cool on the tray until firm enough to transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Repeat to cook as much of the cookie dough as you wish – you can store any dough you’re not ready to cook in a Ziplock bag.
