Air Fryer Apple Cinnamon Rolls

Air Fryer Apple Cinnamon Rolls

Air fryer apple cinnamon rolls are a quick and easy dessert. Perfect for a healthy snack or breakfast, these rolls combine sweet apples and warm cinnamon in a delicious, homemade pastry. Using an air fryer ensures they cook perfectly every time.

  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 10-12 rolls 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
  • Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)

Instructions

1. Preheating air fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes. Preheating ensures even cooking.

2. Prepare rolls for baking: Place the parchment paper with the assembled rolls in the air fryer basket. Make sure the rolls are spaced slightly apart.

3. Set temperature settings: Cook the cinnamon rolls at 350°F (175°C). This temperature is ideal for achieving a golden-brown finish without burning.

4. Cooking time: Cook the rolls for 8-10 minutes. Check after 8 minutes to avoid overcooking. The rolls should be golden brown and cooked through.

5. Check for doneness: Insert a toothpick into the center of a roll. If it comes out clean, the rolls are done.

6. Cooling: Carefully remove the rolls from the air fryer and let them cool for a few minutes before serving. This helps the filling set and makes them easier to handle.

Notes

Air fryers can vary, so keep an eye on the rolls during cooking to prevent over-browning. Adjust cooking time if necessary.
