Tips and Tricks

The toothpick method

If you want to know if your brownie is ready, just take a toothpick. Then open the air-fryer and gently poke the brownie using the toothpick. If the toothpick comes out clean, then your brownie is definitely ready! Nevertheless, some people like their brownies a bit more gooey and soft, so keep your preferences in mind when doing the toothpick test.

You can use a toothpick to determine if your brownie is completely baked

Experiment with toppings

For this brownie recipe, we used some strawberry powder to give it a beautiful red tint, and a sweet flavor. However, you can use almost anything to elevate your brownie recipe. Dehydrated fruits like strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries are super easy to throw in a blender and made into powder. Or, you can use things like caramel, marshmallows, powdered sugar, cookies, chocolate chips, etc. Be creative and make the brownie for your personal taste and mood!
