Our Secret Method for Perfect Air Fryer S'mores
Roll a sheet of aluminum foil into 4 foil balls. Place them, evenly spaced, underneath the air fryer basket in your air fryer. Ensure the basket fits snugly over top to hold the foil balls in place.
Lightly spray the top of each marshmallow with baking spray, such as Baker's Joy Baking Spray. This helps the marshmallow brown on top and gives it a more traditional roasted taste. Important note: Never spray pressurized cooking or baking spray directly in the air fryer basket, as it can damage the non-stick coating of your air fryer. Make sure to do this step outside of the air fryer basket!
4 marshmallows
Place a marshmallow, standing up, at the center of each cupcake liner. Insert a toothpick through the center of the marshmallow and through the cupcake liner, leaving ⅓ of the toothpick exposed.
Hold the toothpick at the top. Insert the bottom of the toothpick through one of the holes of your air fryer basket to pierce one of the tin foil balls beneath the basket. Press down to make sure the toothpick is firmly inserted into the foil, then press down on the marshmallow to ensure it is securely held in place as well. This holds both the cupcake liner and the marshmallow down as they air fry. Repeat for each marshmallow. (See video for a visual demonstration.)
Air Frying S'mores
Air fry at 350°F for 2-3 minutes or until your marshmallows look nicely toasted according to your preference. Keep in mind, as the marshmallows cook, they will get softer and expand. If you air fry them for too long, it will make a mess. We recommend checking on them after 2 minutes, when they should be slightly browned on top and heated through. If needed, add another minute, checking at the 30 second mark for doneness.
Carefully remove the marshmallows from the air fryer when ready. Immediately transfer them to the prepared graham cracker bases, placing them on top of the chocolate. Press the top half of the graham cracker down on top of the marshmallow. The heat from the marshmallow will melt the chocolate. Enjoy your delicious treat!
