How to Make Mini S’mores Pies in the Air Fryer or Oven
Quick Overview
- Preheat (or prepare your air fryer).
- Make the graham cracker crust.
- Layer the chocolate and marshmallows.
- Air-fry or bake until marshmallows are golden and melty.
Step by Step Instructions
Crush graham crackers to a fine crumb for the most stable crust.
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F if baking, or heat the air fryer to the recommended temperature below. Melt the butter gently on the stove or in short bursts in the microwave, watching closely.
Step 2: Crush the graham crackers into fine crumbs using a food processor or by sealing them in a plastic bag and rolling with a pin.
Step 3: In a small bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers, melted butter, and brown sugar until evenly moistened.
Step 4: Divide the crust mixture evenly between two 5-inch pie pans (or the pans you are using).
Step 5: Press the crumbs firmly into the bottom and up the sides to form a compact crust.
Step 6: Break the Hershey’s mini bars into pieces and arrange them evenly in each crust.
Step 7: Sprinkle semi-sweet chocolate chips over the chocolate layer—about one tablespoon per pie.
Step 8: Top each pie with the mini marshmallows, gently pressing them into the chocolate.
Let pies rest a couple of minutes after cooking so the filling sets slightly.
Step 9: If using an air fryer, place pies in the basket. If baking, set the pie pans on a baking sheet.
Step 10: Air fry at 330°F for 4–5 minutes or bake at 350°F for 10–11 minutes, until the marshmallows are toasted and golden.
Recipe Serving Suggestions
Serve warm with a sprinkle of crushed graham crackers, chocolate shavings, chopped nuts, or a scoop of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. These mini pies make a cozy dessert for movie nights, potlucks, or holiday gatherings.
Expert Tips
- Keep an eye on the marshmallows. They toast quickly—check often to avoid burning.
- Serve warm but not piping hot. Let pies cool for 1–2 minutes so the filling is gooey but won’t burn mouths.
Additions & Variations
- Change the chocolate: Try milk chocolate, white chocolate, butterscotch chips, or chopped peanut butter cups in place of Hershey’s pieces.
- Add crunch: Top with chopped walnuts, pecans, or toasted almonds for texture.
- Cookie crumble: Use crushed Oreos instead of or alongside graham crackers for a different crust or topping.
Recipe FAQs
Spray pans lightly with cooking spray before pressing in the crust, or place the crust-lined pans on a baking sheet and pre-bake the crust for a few minutes to remove excess moisture.
Cupcake liners are generally too small for the 5-inch pans called for here. If you want smaller, kid-sized treats, you can use liners or mini tart tins, but adjust ingredient amounts accordingly.
These mini pies are intended to be served in their pans—simply dig in with a fork. If you prefer unmolding, use well-greased or lined pans and gently invert onto a plate after cooling.
