How to Know When Cookies Are Done

The cookies will begin to firm up a bit and if you stick a toothpick in the center and it comes out clean.

How To Make Air Fryer 3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies

Only 3 Easy Ingredients are needed!

• Mix all of the ingredients together with a hand mixer.

• Spray air fryer trays with canola spray. (you can use parchment paper, but it will take your cookies a bit longer to cook)
• Preheat the air fryer to 350 degrees.
• Place rounded balls of dough onto the air fryer trays. Gently press down with the back side of a fork, twice.

• Place the air fryer tray in the middle position in your air fryer. Cook for 5 minutes.

Can You Freeze Peanut Butter Cookies

Sure. Don’t want to use up all the cookies at once? Good choice. Save back some cookies that you can store in the freezer.

The cookies can freeze for up to three months. Thaw on the counter for a quick thaw. Or toss them in the microwave to soften them up. 

Will This Work With Nut Butter

This is something I can’t fully say. I would have to say to remember the different textures of each peanut butter. 

You might find if you use almond or cashew butter it might not mix up properly. If I try it, I will for sure update the post. 

Variations to 3 Ingredient Cookies

• Add ½ cup of chocolate chips to the batter. 
• Drizzle cooked cookies with chocolate. 
• Add ⅓ cup peanuts or another nut to the batter. 
• Spread jelly on one side and smash two cookies together for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
