Air-Fryer Peanut Butter Cookies Tips
Do I have to imprint my peanut butter cookies with crisscross marks?
Crisscross marks are not essential—they’re just for decoration. It is essential, however, to flatten the cookie dough balls prior to
baking your best batch of cookies. (Peanut butter cookie dough is more dense than other cookie doughs, so flattening allows for more even baking.) You can use the bottom of a drinking glass to flatten, but a fork is probably easier and quicker.
How can I jazz up plain peanut butter cookies?
It’s easy to give your
peanut butter cookies a little extra oomph. Drizzle melted chocolate on top or dip half of each cookie in melted chocolate. Do the same with melted peanut butter chips or spread some on top and add a dollop of jam or jelly. Mix in toffee bits, chopped peanuts or pretzels, Reese’s Pieces candies or finely chopped peanut butter cups to the batter for even more fun flavor!
How do I store air-fryer peanut butter cookies?
After the cookies have cooled completely, place them in an airtight container or resealable bag and store at room temperature. To
freeze cookies, store them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 months.
