Air Fryer Gingerbread Cookies -- If you're looking for a fun and festive cookie to make this holiday season, these Air Fryer Gingerbread Cookies are a perfect choice!
This is the recipe we have been using for years, in our oven, from King Arthur's Bakery, recipe here: I adapted it for the air fryer: https://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/gingerbread-cookies-recipe

Ingredients 

  • 3/4 cup butter, melted
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup  molasses
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground all-spice
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3 3/4 cup all-purpose flour

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, mix the butter, brown sugar, molasses, salt, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, ground all-spice, egg, baking powder, baking soda, and flour mix well.
  • Place the dough in the refrigerator for about an hour until it's cold.
  • Then on a large counter or cutting board, add some flour, roll out the dough until it's about 1/4 inch thick. Use flour on the rolling rin as well, since it will stick if you don't.
  • Then use your gingerbread cookie cutters to cut out the shapes.
  • As you make them place them into a greased air fryer basket or use parchment paper. (Or if you have an oven, place them on a greased air fryer tray) Set the temperature to 320 degrees F, air fryer setting, for 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Let cool before decorating.
  • Plate, serve, and enjoy!

Equipment

  • Air Fryer, Air Fryer Oven or Air Fryer Basket
  • Cooking Spray, or Parchment Paper
