If you have been looking for a healthier way of making doughnuts, this recipe is for you. Air-fried and dusted in cinnamon-sugar or dipped in a glaze–all the flavors are there, but the calories of frying are not!
Ingredients
- ¼ cup butter, melted
- ½ cup white sugar
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg (Optional)
- 1 (16.3 ounce) package refrigerated flaky biscuit dough (such as Pillsbury? Grands!? Flaky Layers)
Directions
Step 1
Place melted butter in a bowl. Combine white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg in a second bowl.
Step 2
Separate biscuit dough into individual biscuits and cut out the centers using a biscuit cutter (or the bottom of a piping tip) to create a doughnut shape. Place doughnuts in the air fryer basket.
Step 3
Air fry at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) until golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes. Flip doughnuts and cook an additional 1 to 3 minutes.
Step 4
Remove doughnuts from air fryer. Dip each doughnut into melted butter (making sure to coat top, bottom, and sides), followed by sugar-cinnamon mixture until completed coated. Serve immediately.
Recipe Tip
To reheat, cook doughnuts in the microwave for 8 to 10 seconds, just enough to soften them up again.
