Here are some commonly asked questions

What are S’mores?

S’mores are a classic American camping treat. They consist of a roasted marshmallow and a layer of chocolate sandwiched between two graham crackers.

How do you make a S’more?

There are many ways to make a S’more, but the classic method is to roast a marshmallow over a campfire, then sandwich it between two graham crackers with a layer of chocolate.

How Air Frying Works

While air fryers are relatively new to the market, the technology isn’t really a new concept. They basically work like tiny convection ovens that you can use on your countertop.

Similar to a convection oven, it circulates the hot air within the cooking area using a high-powered fan. This helps evenly distribute the heat around the food which not only creates more evenly cooked food but also reduced cooking times.

By circulating the hot air, which contains the fine oil droplets from adding a light mist layer before cooking, and allows you to remove the need for submerging our foods in heavy oils to create the deliciously crunchy foods we all love.

What are the best marshmallows for S’mores?

There are many brands of marshmallows that are great for making S’mores. Some of our favorites include Jet-Puffed, Campfire, and Kraft.

What are the best chocolate bars for S’mores?

There are many brands of chocolate that are great for making S’mores. Some of our favorites include Hershey’s, Nestle, and Ghirardelli.

What are the benefits of air frying?

Healthier

It’s no secret that fried foods are more fattening – but did you know that there are 9 calories in every gram of fat? With air frying, we can reduce the fat by removing most of the oils usually needed to create crunchy foods. This helps to drastically reduce fat intake and calories.

Convenience

I love being able to cook with my air fryer and eliminate the need for large baking sheets and lots of pots and pans. Most of my air fryer recipes can be made with just a mixing bowl or two or a small saucepan in addition to my air fryer.

Energy Efficient

Someone said to me once, “why make this in the air fryer if you can do it the conventional way in the same amount of time?” Well, air frying helps eliminate the need for a conventional oven.

Not only can you keep your home cooler in the summer by not using the oven, but you are saving money with reduced energy consumption costs as well.

Time Saver

I don’t know about you, but if I can avoid turning on the oven and having to wait 20 minutes for it to preheat, I’m happy about that. Most air fryer recipes either don’t require that you preheat the fryer – or the preheat time is 5 minutes or less. That is a huge time saver over using the oven.

Take it on the go

I love that the air fryer is compact and easy to take along on trips. We pack ours in our RV and find that air fryer cooking while camping is so much easier than trying to deep fry foods on a small RV stove or camping burner.

Ingredients for Air Fryer S’mores

• graham crackers
• s’more size marshmallows
• chocolate bars

Change up the ingredients

To change up this classic combo, try replacing the chocolate square with a large peanut butter cup or your favorite candy bar. You can also add strawberries in between the chocolate square and marshmallow.

You can really shake it up and replace the graham crackers with chocolate chip cookies or glazed donuts.

How to Make Air Fryer S’mores

1. Snap the graham crackers in half making two squares.
2. Divide the chocolate bars into 4, three-piece sections.
3. Add one section of chocolate onto a graham cracker, and then one marshmallow to the other part of the graham cracker.
4. Place the crackers open faced up in the air fryer basket.
5. Cook at 350 for 3 minutes.
6. Carefully remove the cooked crackers and then assemble by pressing the two cooked portions together. The melted marshmallow and chocolate should smush together to make a deliciously messy s’more!

How to prevent sticking in the air fryer

Sticking can often happen when using an air fryer. I understand that most would think to add non-stick spray to the basket to prevent this. I strongly encourage you to not do that.

Non-stick spray leaves a coating that won’t come off, even when washed. Over time – this will build up and cause smoking when you use our air fryer.

I also do not recommend putting down a sheet of foil. The idea behind air frying is to allow the air to circulate around the food.

This is why the basket or tray has holes in it. If you put foil down – this prevents the air from reaching all of the areas it needs to in order for it to cook properly.

Instead – I recommend spraying the basket with olive oil using this spray bottle. You can line the air fryer with perforated parchment paper.

Or you can use one of these really great silicone liners that still allow for airflow but are reusable and easily cleanable.

Air Frying Doneness Tip

Every air fryer is a bit different and they all cook at different rates – so in general, all cooking times are approximate based on the pan and temperature.

You can always cook the recipe longer if needed and reduce the heat a bit. If needed, you can tent the top if it is browning too much.

How to store leftover s’mores

While s’mores are always best when served immediately after making them. If you have leftover s’mores, you can store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Can these be made in the oven?

You bet – if you don’t happen to have an air fryer do not fret. You can make these in the oven as well. To do so…

Bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for 9-11 minutes. You can also broil the marshmallows for a couple of minutes to make them toasty if desired.

What to serve with s’mores

S’mores are typically served as a dessert or snack. However, they can also be served as part of a larger meal. For example, you could serve them with hot dogs and burgers at a cookout, or you could make s’mores pizza for a fun twist on the classic dish.
