Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 package regular or double-stuffed Oreos
- 1 cup pancake mix
- 1 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 can cooking spray For greasing the air fryer basket
- to taste powdered sugar For dusting before serving
Instructions
Preparation
- Start by gathering all your ingredients on a clean, flat surface.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the pancake mix, sugar, baking powder, vanilla extract, and milk. Stir thoroughly until you achieve a smooth batter without lumps.
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
Cooking
- While the air fryer heats up, prepare the Oreos by dipping each one into the pancake batter, ensuring they get fully coated.
- Lightly grease the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Place the batter-coated Oreos in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Make sure they do not touch each other to allow for even cooking.
- Cook the Oreos in the air fryer for 6-8 minutes, or until the batter turns golden brown and crispy.
- Carefully remove the Oreos from the basket, allowing them to cool slightly.
- Dust with powdered sugar before serving to add an extra sweet touch.
