How To Make Air Fryer Chocolate Chip Brownies

To make Air Fryer Chocolate Chip Brownies, follow these simple steps:

Pro Tips

Here are some pro tips to help you make perfect Air Fryer Chocolate Chip Brownies:

Use Room Temperature Ingredients: Allow your eggs and butter to come to room temperature before mixing the brownie batter. Mix room-temperature ingredients more evenly to create a smoother batter.
Don’t Overmix: Mix the brownie batter until the ingredients are combined. Overmixing can result in tough brownies. It’s okay if there are a few small lumps in the batter.
Grease the Pan Well: Make sure to generously grease the baking pan or oven-safe dish to prevent the brownies from sticking. You can use butter, cooking spray, or parchment paper to ensure easy removal after baking.
Add Chocolate Chips Last: Fold the chocolate chips into the batter before pouring it into the pan. This ensures that the chocolate chips are evenly distributed throughout the brownies.
Check for Doneness: Brownies can quickly go from perfectly fudgy to overcooked and dry. Keep a close eye on them as they cook in the air fryer, and check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. They’re ready when the toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, but not wet batter.
Let Them Cool Properly: Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for a few minutes after removing them from the air fryer. This helps them set and develop a better texture. Trying to slice them too soon can result in messy and crumbly brownies.
Store Properly: To keep your brownies fresh and moist, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 days. You can refrigerate them for longer storage, but bring them to room temperature before serving for the best texture.

By following these pro tips, you can make irresistible Air Fryer Chocolate Chip Brownies that will impress your family and friends with their rich chocolatey flavor and melty chocolate chips in every bite!
