Air Fryer Chocolate Chip Muffins

Air fryer chocolate chip muffins are a delicious and easy way to enjoy a classic treat. They are made with simple ingredients and can be cooked in just a few minutes. These muffins are perfect for a quick snack or dessert, and they are sure to please everyone at your next gathering.

Ingredients:

• 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tbsp + 1/4 tsp baking powder
• 1 1/4 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup butter, melted and cooled
• 1 1/4 cup sugar
• 3 large eggs
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (reserve 1/2 cup for topping later)
• 4 tbsp white sparkling sugar

Instructions:

1. Preheat your Air Fryer at 375 for 3 minutes.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk your flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. In a separate large bowl, whisk together your butter and sugar.
4. Add to your butter and sugar bowl your eggs, milk, and vanilla. Mix.
5. Add-In your flour mixture. Mix.
6. Add in 1 cup of your chocolate chips. Fold in.
7. Place in your Air Fryer your silicone molds. Add your muffin mixture to the mold 3/4 on the way. Top with a few chocolate chips (about 3-6 chips per muffin according to your liking). 
8. Sprinkle with some sparkling sugar.
9. Cook at 375 degrees F for 10 minutes or until golden brown. I suggest also sticking a toothpick in the middle of one muffin, and if the stick comes out clean (no batter), it is done!
10. Allow muffins to cool. Then enjoy!

Air fryer chocolate chip muffins can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. They can also be frozen for up to 2 months.

To thaw, place the muffins in the refrigerator overnight or at room temperature for a few hours.
