Remember the step-by-step directions and detailed ingredient list are below in the printable recipe card at the bottom of the post, as well as the nutritional information.

• Puff Pastry: Make sure it’s fully thawed before you start your recipe. This is the base of your s’mores bites and will provide a crispy, flaky outside to your gooey s’mores filling.
• Chocolate Chips or Small Chocolate Squares: The type of chocolate you choose can greatly influence the flavor of your bites. Milk chocolate gives a sweeter, creamier taste, while dark chocolate adds a more intense, slightly bitter flavor.
• Marshmallows Will melt in the air fryer, providing that classic s’mores gooeyness.
• Egg: This helps the pastry become a nice golden brown when you air fry it.
• Optional – Graham Cracker Crumbs This is for dusting on top of the bites after they’ve been cooked. It adds a nice touch of sweetness and makes them look a little fancier!

Step One: Prepare The Air Fryer and Puff Pastry Dough

Start by preheating your air fryer to 375 degrees F (190°C) for 3-5 minutes, or use the preheating setting. Unroll the puff pastry onto a lightly floured surface. Cut it into squares, roughly 2×2 inches.

Step Two: Add The Chocolate

Place a small amount of chocolate in the center of each puff pastry square. Fold over the puff pastry diagonally to form a triangle, or bring all corners together to form a small pouch. Pinch the edges to seal the s’mores bite.

Beat the egg in a small bowl to create an egg wash. Lightly brush the tops of the s’mores bites with the egg wash. This will give the bites a golden color when they air fry.

Step Three: Air Fry S’mores Bites

Place the s’mores bites in the air fryer basket, ensuring they’re not touching. Air fry for 6-8 minutes or until the puff pastry is golden brown and puffed up.

Step Four: Add The Marshmallows

Add the marshmallows on top, and air fry for 1-2 minutes at 400 degrees F; remove when the marshmallows are golden brown. To prevent the marshmallows from blowing around, press the marshmallow firmly in the chocolate.

Step Five: Serving

Carefully remove the s’mores bites from the air fryer and let them cool slightly. Dust with powdered sugar or graham cracker crumbs before serving.

Pro Tips

Here are some pro tips for making the best Puff Pastry S’mores Bites in your air fryer:

• Thaw Properly: Ensure your puff pastry is completely thawed before you start to avoid any difficulty folding or sealing.
• Seal Tightly: Make sure to pinch and seal the edges of your puff pastry bites tightly. This will prevent the filling from oozing out during the cooking process.
• Don’t Overcrowd: Place the s’mores bites in the air fryer basket in a single layer without touching each other. This ensures that they cook evenly and the sides become perfectly crisp.
• Check During Cooking: All air fryers cook differently, so checking your bites during the cooking process is important. You want a nice golden brown color.
• Let them Cool: The filling will be hot from the air fryer. Let the s’mores bites cool for a few minutes to avoid burning your mouth.
• Presentation: For an extra touch, dust the finished s’mores bites with powdered sugar. Not only does this add a little extra sweetness, but it also makes them look like they came from a professional bakery!
• Experiment with Fillings: Once you’ve mastered the s’mores bite, don’t be afraid to experiment with different fillings. Nutella, different types of chocolate, or even fruit fillings can all make delicious alternatives.

Remember, the key to perfect air fryer s’mores bites is to monitor the cooking process and adjust as necessary.

Can I use a different type of chocolate? Absolutely! You can use any type of chocolate you prefer. Dark chocolate, milk chocolate, white chocolate, or even flavored chocolate bars can be used.

Can I use large marshmallows instead of mini ones? You can, but mini marshmallows melt more evenly and are easier to fit inside the puff pastry. If using larger marshmallows, consider cutting them into smaller pieces.

What if I don’t have puff pastry? If you don’t have puff pastry, you could use crescent roll dough or biscuit dough as alternatives. However, keep in mind that the texture and taste will be different.

Can I make these in advance? Puff Pastry S’mores Bites are best served fresh. However, you can prepare them ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator before air frying.

How long do they last? If you have leftovers, they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.

How to reheat them? To reheat, place them back in the air fryer for a few minutes at 300°F until warm.

Can I freeze them? Yes, you can freeze them after assembling. When ready to eat, air fry them directly from the freezer, adding a few more minutes to the cooking time.
