  • Method: Air Fry
  • Cuisine: American
  • Diet: Gluten Free

Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons granulated sugar
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup + 1 teaspoon gluten-free flour*
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • pinch of salt
  • 2 tablespoons chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon crushed walnuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat air fryer to 325 degrees for at least 5 minutes, using the “bake” setting (if applicable)
  2. In a bowl whisk together butter and sugars, then whisk in egg and vanilla until combined well
  3. Mix in flour, baking powder and salt to form a dough, then fold in chocolate chips
  4. Roll dough into ball, then flatten into cookie shape
  5. Place cookie on top of a piece of greased aluminum foil, then put into air fryer. Air fry for 5-6 minutes**
  6. Let cool for at least 5 minutes

Notes

* 1:1 gluten-free flour works best. I used King Arthur

** Air fryers can vary, so be sure to keep an eye on your cookie as it may take more or less time. I use the Ninja air fryer, which has a “bake” setting that I find works well for this recipe

Also make sure your air fryer is safe to use aluminum foil. I prefer using it over parchment paper, which I find burns easily in my air fryer

You can also bake at 350 degrees for 12-14 minutes

What air fryer do you use?

This is the Ninja air fryer I used, which I love because it has so many settings. When it comes to the Air Fryer cookie, I used the “bake” setting (on 325 degrees). Additionally, I let it preheat for about 5 minutes.

I had to experimenta few times to get the air fry settings right, so depending on the air fryer you use you may need to do the same.

I don’t have an air fryer. Can I bake this?

Yes! Bake at 350 degrees for 12-14 minutes.

Can I use a different flour?

If gluten-free, I recommend using a 1:1 gluten-free flour. I used King Arthur, which worked great. My other favorite 1:1 gluten-free flours are Pillsbury and Bob’s Red Mill.

All-purpose flour or oat flour should work as well, however I have not tried this recipe with them yet.

I tried this recipe 4 times using almond flour, and although it tasted delicious, it wasn’t holding together all that well.

I would not recommend using coconut flour as it has a very different absorbency and texture, and would alter all of the other ingredients.

Can I make this cookie dairy-free?

Yes! Simply use your favorite dairy-free butter or coconut oil instead of butter, and use dairy-free chocolate chips.

Can I make this cookie vegan?

In addition to the dairy-free swaps above, you could try using a flax egg instead of egg yolk, however I have not tried this yet.

Is it safe to use aluminum foil in the air fryer?

Make sure your air fryer is safe to use aluminum foil. I prefer using it over parchment paper, which I find burns easily in my air fryer. If you are not comfortable using foil you can place it directly in your air fryer, however it may stick/be more difficult to remove.

As always, if you make this Air Fryer Cookie or any of my other recipes I’d love to know how they turned out. Please leave a review, and be sure totag me on Instagram @Hungry.Blonde! xoxo GG
