Ingredients
Scale
- Oreos (classic sandwich cookies, Double Stuf for gooier center)
- 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup (180ml) milk (whole milk preferred, any dairy or non-dairy works)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt until evenly combined.
- Crack in 1 large egg, pour 3/4 cup (180ml) milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth with no lumps. The batter should be thick enough to coat the Oreos but still runny enough to dip.
- Preheat the air fryer to 360°F (182°C) for about 3 minutes.
- Using tongs or a fork, dip each Oreo into the batter, making sure it’s fully coated. Let excess batter drip off gently.
- Place the coated Oreos in a single layer inside the air fryer basket, leaving space between each cookie for airflow.
- Air fry at 360°F (182°C) for 6 minutes, flipping the Oreos gently halfway through cooking.
- Check doneness; Oreos should be puffed slightly and golden. Add 1-2 minute increments if needed, watching closely to avoid burning.
- Transfer the fried Oreos to a cooling rack or paper towel-lined plate. Let rest for 2-3 minutes.
- Dust with powdered sugar if desired and serve warm.
Notes
Preheat the air fryer for best crispness. Avoid overcrowding the basket to ensure even cooking. Flip Oreos halfway through cooking for golden crust on both sides. Adjust batter thickness with milk if needed. Lightly spray air fryer basket to prevent sticking. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 24 hours and reheat in air fryer for 2-3 minutes. Avoid microwaving to prevent sogginess.
