Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 2/3 cup all-purpose flour (for gluten-free, use a gluten-free baking mix)
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted (use 1/4 cup of coconut oil for dairy-free diets)
- 1/3 cup plus two tablespoons sugar
- 1 egg yolk, lightly beaten
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Line your air fryer basket with a piece of parchment paper that has slits or holes cut into it. If you don’t have parchment paper, you can also use aluminum foil.
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and baking soda. Set the bowl aside.
- Then, in a small bowl, combine the butter and sugar. Use a hand mixer to cream the butter and sugar together for about 1 minute. If you don’t have a hand mixer, then you can use a spatula to mix them, just try to get the mixture really smooth.
- Stir the egg yolk and vanilla extract into the butter and sugar mixture.
- Pour the wet ingredient mixture into the dry ingredient mixture and then stir to combine.
- Lastly, fold in the chocolate chips and then use a spoon to form the mixture into six cookies. Use your hands to flatten the cookies so they aren’t too thick.
- Lay the cookies in a single layer in the air fryer basket and bake them for 8 minutes at 350°F.
- When the cookies are done baking, they will turn a golden brown around the edges. Remove them to a serving plate and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
- You can use white sugar, brown sugar, or coconut sugar in this recipe.
- Use a gluten-free flour blend to make these cookies gluten-free.
- Store any leftover cookies in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- Be sure to use dairy-free chocolate chips if you are on a dairy-free diet.
