Welcome to our half cooked Air fryer lemon biscuits
I don’t know about you but I am addicted to cookie dough. I just love it and when I had sugar or fat cravings during my last pregnancy I would do a bowl of it just for me!!!!
A lot of people find it way too sickly but I certainly don’t have that issue. When we go to Pizza Hut we will always finish on one of their cookie dough puddings that will be topped with chocolate sauce and vanilla ice cream. After two or three mouthfuls Dominic will be flagging and I will easily finish it for him!
I am also the first person to clean out the bowl whenever we are making buns, biscuits or cake.
In all honesty I would rather have the cake mix than the cake itself – so this is why we have the half cooked lemon biscuits. Just so that I can half cook something so that I am enjoying the best of both worlds.
The biggest benefit is that they are lovely and chewy like dough, but lightly cooked at the same time. If you prefer your biscuits better cooked then I would recommend you double the cooking time.

Ingredients
- Philips Airfryer

- 100 g Caster Sugar
- 225 g Self Raising Flour

- Add the lemon rind and juice along with the egg.
- Combine and knead until you have lovely soft dough.
- Roll out and cut into medium sized biscuits.
- Place the biscuits into the airfryer on a baking sheet and cook for five minutes at 180c.

Hi Linda
An airfryer is a machine that can cook food for less calories. So if you say cook chicken nuggets in a deep fryer then cook them in an airfryer you would be saving at least 80% fat by using the airfryer because you only need a tbsp of oil to cook with here is a blog post all about airfryers for you to read:
