The weekend is almost here and it’s time to bake up some delicious Air Fryer Donuts! Did you know that you can bake in an air fryer? For those of you who don’t have one yet, have I convinced you it’s an investment you need to seriously consider?

I’m not into tons of gadgets, but I am into gadgets that work and make my life easier. My air fryer checks both boxes and even with my recent Ninja Foodi purchase, I’m not parting with my air fryer.

So, with that being said, let me show you how to make some donuts!

Making Air Fryer Donuts

You won’t need a mixing bowl or any flour for this recipe, because we’re using Grands! biscuits. Cut out the middle of each biscuit with a 1″ donut cutter and reserve the donut holes. You can air fry those, too!

To ensure we’re not crowding the donut cut-outs, we’re going to air fry four of them at a time. 

After 4 minutes at 330º Fahrenheit, they should look like the photo below.

Tip: When frying up the donut holes, fry them for 3 minutes at 330º Fahrenheit.

After you’ve mixed up your glaze, you can start dipping the donuts. 

Dip them gently into the sprinkles and you’ll end up with a pretty delicious looking donut. Am I right?

Here’s where you go and fix yourself up a nice cup of coffee. . .or milk. Whichever you prefer.☺️

And then work on finishing the donut holes in between bites.

Whatever you do, try and gobble them up while they’re still warm and fresh. That’s when they’re at their best!

These air fryer donuts are the perfect way to start the weekend and they literally take minutes to prepare. Enjoy and Happy Friday, friends!
