Yields: 18 cookies | Prep Time: 5 min
Cook Time: 10 min | Total Time: 15 min
Ingredients:
- 1 cup pancake mix
- ⅔ cup water
- cooking spray
- 18 baking cups
- 18 chocolate sandwich cookies (such as Oreo®)
- 2 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar
Instructions:
- Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees.
- Spray cooking spray inside the baking cups.
- Mix pancake mix and water in a bowl until well combined.
- Dip each cookie into the pancake mixture, and place each one in a baking cup.
- Place the filled cups in the air fryer basket, making sure the cups are spread out enough to keep their round shape on the bottom.
- Cook for four to five minutes; then flip cookies and cook two to three minutes more, until golden brown.
- Remove cookies from the air fryer and place on a cooling rack.
- Sprinkle cookies with confectioners’ sugar.
Notes:
Make sure the pancake batter is thick so that it easily coats the entire cookie in one dip. Cook in batches if necessary. A small round cookie cutter can also be used after baking to make the cookies perfectly round.
