Air Fryer Cheese Puffs Recipe

 

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Gruyere, or your favorite)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the dough:
    • In a medium saucepan, combine the water, butter, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
    • Once the butter is melted, reduce the heat to low and add the flour all at once. Stir vigorously with a wooden spoon until the mixture forms a ball and pulls away from the sides of the pan.
    • Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the mixture cool for 5 minutes.
  2. Add the eggs:
    • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition until the dough is smooth and glossy. This can be done by hand or with a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment.
    • Stir in the shredded cheese, black pepper, and garlic powder (if using) until well combined.
  3. Preheat the air fryer:
    • Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 5 minutes.
  4. Shape and cook the puffs:
    • Line the air fryer basket with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
    • Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, drop tablespoon-sized mounds of dough into the air fryer basket, spacing them about 1 inch apart to allow for expansion.
    • Air fry the cheese puffs at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown and puffed up.
  5. Cool and serve:
    • Remove the cheese puffs from the air fryer and let them cool slightly on a wire rack.
    • Serve warm, or let them cool completely and store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

Enjoy your homemade air fryer cheese puffs with their crispy exterior and cheesy, tender interior!
