When the beautiful summer days roll around, there’s nothing better than a fresh-outta-the-oven or out on my countertop air fryer cookie. But as any mom knows, picking snacks for your kids is always challenging because they’ve got tastes that are different from ours! So this year I’m trying some new recipes in both appliances and seeing what he likes best before buying too many things at once– just like how people without gluten allergies do when going grocery shopping (and then having them end up being expensive).
I love how my family loves nuts. I will be experimenting with more peanuts, as the month continues but today it’s pecan time! My dad picked up a bag at our favorite grocery store and wanted me to try roasting them in an Instant Pot.
This batch was really easy to make, they also have an incredible flavor to them, after the final roasting (in the oven, but you could try it in the air fryer).
