Air Fryer Mini Smores Pie - A Quick, Gooey Treat Everyone Loves

Prep Time10 minutes
Cook Time8 minutes
Total Time18 minutes
Servings: 6 servings

Ingredients

  • Mini graham cracker pie crusts (store-bought, 3–4 inches each)
  • Chocolate (milk chocolate bars or chocolate chips)
  • Marshmallows (regular size or mini; regular gives a dramatic toast, minis melt evenly)
  • Butter (optional; a tiny bit brushed on crust edges for extra flavor)
  • Sea salt (optional; a pinch enhances the chocolate)
  • Nonstick spray or parchment rounds (optional, to keep things tidy)

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer: Set it to 350°F (175°C) for 2–3 minutes. A quick preheat helps the chocolate soften and marshmallows toast evenly.
  • Prep the crusts: Place mini graham crusts on a small sheet of parchment or in the fryer basket. If you like, lightly brush crust edges with melted butter.
  • Add the chocolate: Break chocolate bars into pieces and fill each crust with a single even layer. If using chips, add a generous handful. You want the base covered but not piled high.
  • Soften the chocolate: Air fry for 1–2 minutes, just until the chocolate looks glossy and slightly melty. Don’t overdo it.
  • Add the marshmallows: Place 3–4 regular marshmallows (or a layer of minis) on top of the softened chocolate. Leave a little space so air can circulate and toast the tops.
  • Toast: Air fry for 2–4 minutes at 350°F, watching closely around the 2-minute mark. Pull them when the marshmallows are puffy and golden to deep brown.
  • Finish with a pinch of salt: A tiny sprinkle of flaky sea salt over the warm tops makes the chocolate pop. Optional but highly recommended.
  • Cool slightly and serve: Let the pies sit for 2–3 minutes. The chocolate sets a bit and the marshmallows become perfectly gooey. Enjoy warm.
