Air Fryer S’mores bring the magic of campfire treats into the kitchen with none of the mess. In just minutes, I get to enjoy gooey marshmallows, melty chocolate, and crispy graham crackers—all toasted to perfection in the air fryer. It’s a fast and satisfying dessert that satisfies cravings year-round, no firepit required.
Ingredients
(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
4 graham crackers, broken in half
4 large marshmallows
Four squares of chocolate (milk or dark)
Optional: peanut butter, Nutella, or caramel sauce for layering
Directions
I start by preheating my air fryer to 370°F (188°C).
Then, I place 4 graham cracker halves on a piece of parchment paper that fits neatly in the air fryer basket.
On each graham cracker, I place one marshmallow.
I air fry them for about 3–4 minutes, keeping an eye on the marshmallows until they puff up and turn golden brown.
Once done, I carefully remove them and immediately add a square of chocolate and another graham cracker half on top to make a sandwich.
I let them sit for a minute or two to help the chocolate melt slightly.
For an extra indulgent treat, I sometimes add a swipe of peanut butter, Nutella, or caramel sauce before adding the chocolate.

Variations
I sometimes swap milk chocolate for dark or even white chocolate for a twist.
Adding peanut butter or Nutella under the marshmallow gives a rich, nutty flavor.
For a salted caramel version, I drizzle caramel sauce over the marshmallow before air frying.
I also enjoy using flavored marshmallows—like strawberry or vanilla swirl—for a fun change.
If I’m feeling adventurous, I even try sandwiching in a thin slice of banana or fresh berries.
Storage/Reheating
Air Fryer S’mores are best eaten fresh, but if I have leftovers (which is rare), I store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 day. To reheat, I pop them back in the air fryer for about 1–2 minutes at 350°F, just until the chocolate and marshmallow soften again. Microwaving for 10–15 seconds also works in a pinch.
FAQs
Can I use mini marshmallows instead of large ones?
Yes, I can use mini marshmallows, but I usually group them together to form one “mound” on the graham cracker so they toast evenly and don’t fall off during cooking.
What kind of chocolate works best?
I like to use classic milk chocolate bars for that nostalgic flavor, but dark chocolate, caramel-filled squares, or even peanut butter cups work wonderfully.
Can I make these in a basket-style air fryer?
Absolutely. I just make sure to use parchment paper or a silicone liner to keep the crackers stable and avoid mess.
Can I make these dairy-free?
Yes, I use dairy-free chocolate and vegan marshmallows, and the result is still delicious. I also check the graham crackers, as some contain honey or dairy.
What if my marshmallows fly around in the air fryer?
This can happen if the airflow is strong. I try lightly pressing the marshmallow into the cracker or cutting it in half and sticking the sticky side down—it helps it stay put.
Conclusion
These Air Fryer S’mores are my go-to for a nostalgic, melty, sweet treat without needing a campfire. In just minutes, I can have a delicious dessert that’s customizable, fun to make, and perfect for sharing—or not. Whether I keep it classic or add a twist, this recipe always hits the spot.
