Equipment
Ste-By-Step Process
Step-1:Preheating
For this recipe, preheat your air fryer to 375 F for 2 mins.
Step-2:Spraying
Spray your air fryer basket with coconut or avocado oil. This will prevent the cinnamon rolls from sticking to the fryer’s basket.
You can also use parchment paper instead of spraying the basket. And I personally like to use parchment paper.
Step-3:Cooking
Take out the cinnamon rolls from the packet and place them in the air fryer. You can place 4-6 rolls, depending on your air fryer size.
Set the temperature to 350 F and the time to 7 mins.
Keep checking their condition after 4 mins, so they don’t get overcooked.
They will be golden brown on the outside and crispy and crunchy on the inside.
You can also use butter and salt on them if you want for a more salty taste.
