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!

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

Cook's Note:

To reheat, cook doughnuts in the microwave for 8 to 10 seconds, just enough to soften them up again.

Really yummy just as written! It took a bit more melted butter to cover all the doughnuts, and I had extra sugar coating. Doughnut holes were awesome too. Cooked I two batches Read More
