How to Make Air Fryer S’mores

Ingredients

• 2 graham crackers
• 1 marshmallow, cut in half
• 1-2 squares of chocolate (such as Lindt or Hershey’s)

Step-by-Step Guide

Preheat the air fryer to 390°F.

Place the marshmallow halves, cut side down, onto a graham cracker. Press the marshmallow so that it sticks to the graham cracker.

Place both graham crackers, one with marshmallow and one without, into the air fryer. Close nd cook for about 1 1/2 minutes or until the marshmallow is golden brown.

Remove the graham cracker with the marshmallow. Place a piece of chocolate onto the second graham cracker. Allow it to melt for a couple of seconds so that it sticks to the graham cracker. Return the chocolate graham cracker to the air fryer for about 30 seconds, until the chocolate is melted, being careful not to burn the chocolate.

Press the graham crackers together and serve warm.

Notes

• Cook time can vary depending on the size and model of your air fryer, but it could take up to 4 minutes.
• Cutting the marshmallow in half and placing the sticky side down onto the graham cracker will hold it in place, preventing it from flying around in the air fryer.
• If the marshmallow does fall off, simply place it back on the graham cracker and continue cooking.
• Be careful not to burn the chocolate.

Tips

● Don’t overstuff the air fryer basket: Make sure you leave enough room in the air
fryer basket for air to circulate around the s’mores. Overstuffing the basket can
lead to uneven cooking and burnt marshmallows. We cooked one at a time.
● Watch the cooking time: Cooking times can vary depending on the size and
strength of your air fryer. Keep an eye on the s’mores while they cook to make
sure they don’t burn. You may need to adjust the cooking time accordingly.
● Experiment with different types of chocolate: While milk chocolate is the
traditional choice for s’mores, you can also try using dark chocolate, white
chocolate, or even flavored chocolate bars to add some variety to your air fryer
s’mores.
● Try different types of marshmallows: In addition to traditional marshmallows, you
can also try using flavored marshmallows, such as strawberry or chocolate, to
add some extra sweetness to your air fryer s’mores.
● Add toppings: Once your s’mores are cooked, try adding some toppings to make
them even more delicious. Crushed graham cracker crumbs, sprinkles, or a
drizzle of melted chocolate can all take your air fryer s’mores to the next level.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to preheat the air fryer before making s’mores?

Yes, it’s important to preheat the air fryer before cooking the s’mores. This ensures that
the air fryer is at the right temperature and helps prevent uneven cooking.

Can I use different types of crackers instead of graham crackers?

Yes, you can try using different types of crackers, like digestive biscuits or even
shortbread cookies. However, keep in mind that the cooking time may need to be
adjusted based on the thickness and texture of the crackers.

Can I make air fryer s’mores ahead of time?

Air fryer s’mores are best enjoyed fresh. You can lay out the ingredients in a tray so that
you are ready to make them!

How can I prevent the marshmallows from melting and becoming too messy in the air
fryer?

The key to preventing overly melted marshmallows is to watch the cooking time and
temperature closely. Adjust the cooking time and temperature as needed to prevent the
marshmallows from becoming too gooey or burning.

Can I use a different type of chocolate instead of chocolate bars?

Yes, you can try using chocolate chips or even Nutella spread instead of chocolate bars.
Just be sure to evenly distribute the chocolate to ensure that it melts evenly.

How many s’mores can I make in the air fryer at once?

This will depend on the size of your air fryer and the size of the s’mores you are making.
As a general rule, it’s best not to overcrowd the air fryer basket and to leave enough
space between each s’more to cook evenly. The graham crackers tend to bounce around, so we only cooked one at a time.
