Ingredients
  

1 cup natural peanut butter (smooth or chunky)

1 cup brown sugar, packed

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup granulated sugar (for rolling)

Optional: chocolate chips or chopped peanuts for topping

Instructions
 

In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, brown sugar, egg, vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt. Mix well until smooth and fully combined.

    Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C).

      Using a tablespoon, scoop out dough and roll into balls. Place the balls on a plate or baking sheet.

        Roll each dough ball in granulated sugar for a sweet, crunchy coating.

          If desired, dough balls can be topped with chocolate chips or chopped peanuts for extra flavor.

            Place the cookie dough balls into the air fryer basket, ensuring they are spaced apart to allow for even cooking (you may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer).

              Air fry for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden. Check at 8 minutes and add more time if needed.

                Once done, carefully remove the cookies from the air fryer and let them cool on a wire rack for about 5 minutes. They will firm up as they cool.

                  Enjoy your delicious, chewy, and slightly crunchy peanut butter cookies!
