Homemade Air Fryer Cookies

These air fryer cookies are made from scratch. We used red and green (because that is what we had on hand) sprinkles to give them a little pop of color but you could use whatever colors you have.

We made these cookies in the Ninja Foodi Grill/Air Fryer but could be made in any air fryer. Just be sure to keep an eye on the first batch as every air fryer can cook slightly different.

This cookie recipe will make about 35 small triangle cookies but will depend on how large and what shape you cut your cookies.
