Quick, fudgy brownies with a crinkly top, made for two using simple ingredients and an air fryer.
# What You’ll Need:
→ Dry Ingredients
01 -
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
02 -
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
03 -
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
04 -
1/4 teaspoon salt
05 -
1/2 cup granulated sugar
→ Wet Ingredients
06 -
1/4 cup unsalted butter
07 -
2 tablespoons semi-sweet chocolate chips
08 -
1 large egg
09 -
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Preheat the air fryer to 315°F (157°C) for 5 minutes. Grease a 6-inch round cake pan and set aside.
02 -
In a small bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. Set aside.
03 -
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
04 -
In a large bowl, whisk the egg, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract together until the mixture is light in color and fluffy.
05 -
Add the melted butter and chocolate mixture into the egg mixture and stir to combine. Gently fold in the dry ingredients until just incorporated, careful not to overmix.
06 -
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake in the preheated air fryer at 315°F (157°C) for 15 minutes.
07 -
Remove the pan using oven mitts and allow the brownies to cool for 10 minutes before serving. Optionally top with ice cream or whipped cream.
# Helpful Hints:
01 -
Check doneness by inserting a toothpick about two-thirds into the brownie; it should come out with a few moist crumbs for fudgy texture.
02 -
Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days or refrigerate up to 1 week. Reheat briefly to restore fudginess.
