How to Make Air Fryer Oatmeal Cookies
-
To begin prep, line the basket with air fryer parchment paper, or use cooking spray on a small cookie sheet if using air fryer with trays.
-
Using a stand or electric mixer, in a large mixing bowl, cream butter with sugar, then add in the eggs and vanilla. Beat together until light and fluffy.
-
Add flour, salt, cinnamon, baking powder, and baking soda to the mixing bowl, and beat together until well combined. Then, fold the oats and raisins into the dough until evenly distributed.
-
Use a cookie scoop or large spoon to scoop cookie dough, and then drop dough into the air fryer basket. Lay cookies inside the basket in single layer, and leave about 1 inch in between the batch of cookies for room to spread.
-
Air Fry at 300 degrees Fahrenheit for 5-6 minutes, until the cookies are golden brown. Before removing cookies from basket, let them rest for 1-2 minutes to become firm.

NOTES
When making these cookies, if you don't have room for spread in your air fryer basket, chill the dough for about 30 minutes before cooking.
When removing the cookies, they can be soft when warm. Letting them sit for a few minutes, helps them to slightly firm. You can lift the piece of parchment paper liner with the cookies for easier removal and then transfer them to a wire rack to continue cooling.
