Air Fryer Donuts

Air Fryer Donuts

Ingredients:

  • 1 pack of Pillsbury Grands Biscuits (8-count)
  • 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup of granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons of ground cinnamon

Equipment:

  • Air fryer
  • Small round cutter (like the cap of a bottle)
  • Pastry brush
  • Tongs
  • Mixing bowl

Instructions:

  1. Preparation:
    • Open the pack of Pillsbury Grands Biscuits and separate the individual biscuits. Place them on a clean, flat surface.
    • Using a small round cutter (or the cap of a bottle), cut out the center of each biscuit to create the donut shape. Save the centers to make donut holes if desired.
  2. Preheat the Air Fryer:
    • Preheat your air fryer to 360°F (182°C) for about 3 minutes. This ensures an even cooking temperature when you place the donuts inside.
  3. Cooking the Donuts:
    • Place the donuts in the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure they don’t touch each other. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to cook them in batches.
    • Cook the donuts at 360°F (182°C) for about 3 minutes.
    • After 3 minutes, carefully open the air fryer and flip each donut using tongs. This ensures they cook evenly on both sides.
    • Cook for an additional 3 minutes, or until the donuts are golden brown.
  4. Finishing Touches:
    • While the donuts are cooking, melt the butter in a small bowl and mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in another bowl.
    • Once the donuts are cooked, remove them from the air fryer using tongs and place them on a plate.
  5. Coating the Donuts:
    • Using a pastry brush, brush each donut with melted butter, making sure to cover both sides.
    • Immediately dip each buttered donut into the cinnamon sugar mixture, ensuring an even coating. You can gently press the donuts into the sugar to make sure it sticks well.
  6. Serving:
    • Place the coated donuts on a serving plate. If you have cooked the donut holes, follow the same buttering and sugar coating steps.
    • Serve warm and enjoy your delicious homemade air fryer donuts!

These donuts are quick and easy to make, and the result is a warm, buttery treat with a delightful cinnamon sugar coating. Enjoy them fresh from the air fryer for the best taste!
