Ingredients

  • ¼ cup smooth peanut butter use PB that is drippy with no added sugar
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 70 grams almond flour approx. ¾ cup
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Combine all the ingredients in a small mixing bowl and stir until combined. The batter might seem dry at first, but just keep mixing until it's smooth.
  2. Use a small cookie scoop (1 tablespoon) to scoop your batter. Then roll it into a ball in the palm of your hand. Use a fork to press the ball down into a flatter cookie shape, making a crisscross pattern. Then place the cookie into your air fryer basket. Repeat with the remaining batter, leaving a half inch space between each cookie. You should get 7 cookies.
  3. Air fry the cookies at 325 degrees F for 5-7 minutes until they appear golden on top. They will still be soft to the touch, this is normal and they will firm up as they cool. Remove the basket from the fryer and let the cookies rest, undisturbed for 10 minutes. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Don't use parchment paper in your basket. It will fly around and prevent the air from flowing under your cookies. You need breathing holes for the best results.
  • Weigh your flour for the most accuracy. Scooping flour from a bag often results in too much being used and may cause your cookies to be dry.
  • If you don't have a kitchen scale, and the cookie batter seems dry, add 1 extra teaspoon of maple syrup and mix well before adding more. A little goes a long way.
  • Use a small (1 tablespoon size) cookie scoop for even-sized cookies and even "baking".
  • After rolling the batter into a ball, press with a fork in the palm of your hand. Do not press the cookies into the air frying basket or some of the cookie dough will push through the basket holes, causing them to break when removing them later.
  • Let your peanut butter cookies cool down in the basket (but basket removed from fryer) for 10 minutes before handling. This rest time will firm up your cookies.
