Air Fryer Chocolate Chip Cookies are amazing! If you love a great and perfect cookie, this is the recipe for you!

My children really like homemade chocolate chip cookies. They are really easy to make in the air fryer, and the clean-up is really quick.

One of the advantages I give to everyone looking to purchase an air fryer is that an oven is easier to bake with.

Items like cookies and pancakes are far easier to make in an air fryer oven, than a basket.

But there is an easy way for you to make them in the basket, which I show you below!

Some Pro Tips:

  • Measure the flour correctly otherwise;, the cookies will not bake up correctly.
  • The COld dough works best in the air fryer.
  • Add any nuts you want, I kept it plain with chocolate chips, but any diced pecan, walnuts, or macadamia nuts will work.
  • You can make the dough the night before and leave it in the refrigerator.
  • This recipe will work in any air fryer, making them in the Instant Pot Vortex and the GoWise.

Storage instructions:

These cookies will stay well at room temperature for 3 to 4 days, for any longer cover and place into the refrigerator.

Can you put parchment paper in air fryer?

Yes, parchment paper is perfect for the air fryer since it allows you to bake cookies without the dough falling through the basket.

The key is not to preheat the air fryer without any food. Otherwise, you have the risk of the parchment paper blowing up into the heating element and burning it. This also becomes a safety hazard.
