Pro Tips for Perfect Pumpkin Butter Cookies:
✅ Chill the dough – this prevents spreading and keeps them soft.✅ Use pumpkin butter, not pumpkin purée – pumpkin butter is thicker and more flavorful.
✅ Don’t overcrowd the air fryer – cook in batches if needed.
✅ For crispy edges, air fry for an extra 1-2 minutes. 🔥 Enjoy these warm, spiced Air Fryer Pumpkin Butter Cookies with a cup of tea or coffee! 🎃🍪✨
