Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1 12.4 ounce tube refrigerated cinnamon rolls

Instructions

  • In a bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon; set aside.
  • Open the tube of cinnamon rolls and place them on a cutting board; set aside the icing packet.
  • Use a small round cookie cutter (or shot glass) to cut out the center of the donut.
  • Place a few donuts and donut holes into the air fryer leaving about 1 inch of space between each. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you'll need to do this in couple batches.
  • Cook them in the air fryer at 350°F for 5-7 minutes or until they're golden brown.
  • Give them a quick spritz of cooking spray and then immediately dunk them into the cinnamon sugar mixture.
  • Place the donut on a wire cooling rack and repeat with remaining donuts.
  • Scoop the icing into a small resealable bag and cut off the tip of one of the corners (this will be your makeshift piping bag).
  • Squeeze the icing on top of the donuts and enjoy warm!

Notes

I've noticed quite a bit of variation between air fryer brands.  Keep a close eye (especially on that first batch) to get a better idea of how long they'll take to cook.
