Easy Air Fryer Brownies

all-purpose flour

cocoa powder

sugar

unsalted butter (melted)

eggs

vegetable oil

vanilla extract

salt

baking powder

prepare your 7-inch baking pan by generously greasing with butter on the bottom and all sides. Set aside.

Preheat your Air Fryer by setting the temperature to 330 degrees Fahrenheit and allowing it to run for about 5 minutes while you prepare your brownie batter.

Add your all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, sugar, butter, eggs, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, salt, and baking powder into a large bowl and stir until thoroughly combined.

Add it to the prepared baking pan and smooth out the top.

Place in your preheated Air Fryer and bake for 15 minutes or until a toothpick entered in the center comes out mostly clean.

Remove and allow to cool in the pan before removing and cutting.

Skip the oven and make small batch Vegan Air Fryer Brownies in only 30 minutes the next time you&#039;re craving a sweet treat.

Small Batch Vegan Air Fryer Brownies

whole wheat pastry flour

organic sugar

Tablespoon ground flax seeds

non-dairy milk

aquafaba ((the liquid

Mix the dry ingredients together in one bowl. Then mix the wet ingredients in a large measuring cup. Add the wet to the dry and mix well.

Add in the mix-in(s) of your choice and mix again.

Preheat your air fryer to 350°F. Line a 5-inch round cake or pie pan (or a loaf pan that fits in your air fryer) with parchment paper. (Alternatively you can spray the pan with oil, but then the brownies will not be oil-free.)

Place the pan in the fryer basket or on the tray if you have an oven-style air fryer. Cook for 20 minutes. If the middle is not well set or a knife doesn&#39;t come out clean when stuck in the middle, cook for 5 minutes more and repeat as needed. Cooking time may vary depending on the size of your pan and your particular air fryer.

Let the brownies cool for about 30 minutes before cutting.

You’re only minutes away from indulging in decadent, gooey, fudgy air fryer brownies! This homemade recipe is just as easy as boxed brownies and tastes even better.

I just made these delicious brownies today, July 21, 2025. They’re so moist and flavourful, even my husband loved them. I’m going to double the recipe and make a brownie birthday cake for my 8 year old granddaughter when she visits this weekend. We’re on the lake in Canada. Thank you Katrin for your talent and for sharing so many wonderful recipes.

I’ve really enjoyed your recipes, I’ve lost 90 lbs and they help me maintain my weight loss while still following a keto-ish lifestyle.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE these, they are my new go to for a brownie recipe. They are delicious and I’ve already made a second batch. What is the easiest way to blend them because the batter is super thick.

Very tasty. I'm off sugar and carbs for Cancer and these hit the spot for my sweet-tooth. Used Monkfruit sweetner and added some dark chocolate sugar free chocolate chips. I also make them in cupcake tins for easy 1 piece serving sizes.

I've made this twice so far, really delicious!

These were so easy to make and a lovely fudgy texture. I used a high protein cottage cheese (Piatnica) and that worked well. I made them in my air fryer and accidentally had the temp too high (190C instead of 160C ‍♀️) so the top caught and formed a ‘skin’ but I was able to peel it off …. user error by me so I’ll lower the temp and cover with foil next time as I definitely making these again. Great recipe, thanks Katrin!

These air fryer brownies have a crispy exterior and a gooey, moist interior. They’re full of rich chocolate flavor and super easy to make.

brown sugar

tsp vanilla extract

tsp salt

flour

tsp baking powder

cocoa powder (unsweetened)

chocolate chunks

Preheat your air fryer to 325°F (165°C) for 5 minutes.

In a large bowl, mix together the eggs, sugar, and oil.

Add the cocoa powder, vanilla, salt, flour, and baking powder. Mix well until combined.

Fold in the chocolate chunks.

Pour the batter into a 7 inch × 5 inch baking pan. Air Fry at 325°F (165°C) for 12-16 minutes.

Use a toothpick to check if the brownies are done before taking it out of the air fryer.
