Have you tried to air fry these? If so what adjustments (if any) have you made? And what did you do for time/temp?

Nicole, we never tried, but if you were to try, make sure the consistency is a little on the harder side when you form them into balls, and cook in a preheated air fryer for about 5 to 6 minutes or until golden brown, let us know how they turn out.

I made these, they were very good. Even though I left out the ingredients that I don't like. I will make them again!
