DIY Donuts in the Power Air Fryer

Do you have an air fryer? If you do, you probably cook many things in it like I have started doing. I just got my air fryer and I want to show you how to make donuts in the Power Air Fryer Oven.

I was so excited about getting this Power air fryer pro oven for Christmas, I had wanted one for a very long time.

I only cook for 2 people and this works great more lot’s of things that I want to cook quickly.

Starting out with some simple easy to do air fryer recipes, I choose to make these donuts first.

We don’t eat donuts very often because they are so sugary and unhealthy.

Now, I know these are not healthy either but you can choose how much sugar you want when making them.

These are so simple to make when you do want donuts and I found them to be very delicious.

How to make donuts in the Power Air Fryer Oven

Ingredients:

• 1 Can of Grands Biscuits, 5 count or 10 (butter, original, buttermilk or even flaky)
• Butter
• 2 tbsp Cinnamon
• 1/2 c. Sugar
• 1/2 cup Powdered Sugar (for glaze)
• 2 tbsp Milk
• 1/2 tsp Vanilla
• 1 tbsp Cocoa Powder
• Powdered Sugar

Instructions:

• Set Air Fryer to 350 degrees (I never have to preheat, just set it once I put them in)
• Set timer 4 minutes (I had to add just a little extra time before flipping)
• Flip donuts halfway though (about 2 to 2..5 minutes)
• Take them out of air fryer and add desired toppings.

Most air fryer recipes that I come across for these donuts use the flaky biscuits, I don’t care for them so I got the regular butter flavored ones.

The butter that is in these biscuits just make them so much more tastier in my opinion.

My favorite is the donut holes, so much easier to eat and you can eat more of them, well I can anyways.

Glazed Topping

• Mix 1/2 cup powdered sugar, 2 tbsp milk (more if needed), 1/2 tsp vanilla
• Dip one side donut into glaze, let cool (I l actually brushed it with melted butter before dipping, optional)
• Add sprinkles if desired.

Chocolate Glazed Topping

1. Mix 1/2 cup powdered sugar, 2 tbsp milk (more if needed), 1/2 tsp vanilla, 1 tbsp cocoa powder in small dish
2. Dip one side of donut into glaze, let cool
3. Add sprinkles if desired

Powdered Sugar Topping

• Brush melted butter on both sides (optional)
• Shake or sprinkle powdered sugar onto both sides

Cinnamon Sugar Topping

• Brush on melted butter on both sides
• Mix 1/2 c granulated sugar and 2 tbsp ground cinnamon in small dish
• Roll donut into cinnamon sugar mixture

I didn’t add the info in for cooking the donut holes, it’s basically the same process, just less time.

I have a confession to make though….

I ate one glazed and one chocolate one while the donut holes were cooking, I am so pitiful. I loved them so much more than going to a donut shop.

I would love to know if you have ever tried donuts in the Air Fryer before and if you like them.

They have become my go to now over buying them already made. I am just never happy with the ones that I buy.
