Pro Tips

Here are some pro tips to ensure perfect Trader Joe’s Truffle Brownies when using an air fryer:

  • Use a Properly Sized Baking Dish: Select a baking dish that fits comfortably in your air fryer basket. This ensures even cooking and prevents overcrowding, allowing the brownies to bake correctly.

  • Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheating the air fryer helps create an optimal cooking environment for the brownies, ensuring they cook evenly and efficiently. Preheat for a few minutes before adding the baking dish.

  • Adjust Cooking Time: Air fryer models can vary in cooking times, so watch your brownies towards the end of the suggested cooking time. Insert a toothpick into the center to check for doneness—when it comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, the brownies are ready.

  • Line the Baking Dish: Consider lining the baking dish with parchment paper for easy removal and cleanup. This also prevents the brownies from sticking to the dish, ensuring they come out smoothly.

  • Avoid Overmixing: Mix the brownie mix with wet ingredients until just combined. Overmixing can lead to tough brownies, so gently fold the ingredients together until no dry spots remain.

  • Add Mix-ins: Customize your brownies by adding extra chocolate chips, nuts, or even a peanut butter swirl before baking. This adds extra flavor and texture.

  • Allow Cooling Time: Let the brownies cool in the baking dish for a few minutes before slicing. This allows them to set and firm up, making them easier to cut into neat squares.

By following these pro tips, you can make perfect Trader Joe’s Truffle Brownies in your air fryer every time, ensuring a delicious and satisfying dessert experience.
