Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the Batter and Coating
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose pancake mix or boxed pancake mix
  • 1/3 cup milk more if batter is too thick
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract optional, but lovely
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar for dusting or warm chocolate sauce for dipping
  • as needed nonstick cooking spray or a light brush of oil
For the Oreos
  • 12 Oreos regular or Double Stuf

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Whisk the pancake mix, milk, egg, and vanilla until smooth. You want a batter thick enough to coat but thin enough to drip off a fork.
  2. Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for about 3 minutes. Lightly spray the basket to prevent sticking.
  3. Dip an Oreo into the batter, letting excess drip back into the bowl. Place the coated cookie into the air fryer basket in a single layer — don’t crowd them. Repeat until the basket is full but with space for air to circulate (about 5–6 cookies, depending on fryer size).
Cooking
  1. Air fry at 350°F for 4–6 minutes. Open and check at 3 minutes; flip gently if your air fryer benefits from even browning. You’re looking for a light golden crust on the batter.
  2. Remove carefully with tongs or a spatula and let cool on a rack for a minute. Dust with powdered sugar or serve with warm chocolate sauce.

Notes

Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 24 hours. For refrigerated versions with ice cream or cream cheese, eat within 1-2 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 300°F for 1-2 minutes.
