Ingredients
  

  • 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough 8 count
  • 4 tbsp butter melted
  • 0.5 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon

  1. Separate the biscuits and use a small round cutter or bottle cap to cut a hole in the center of each.
  2. Lightly mist the air fryer basket and arrange the donuts in a single layer.
  3. Air fry at 350F for 5 to 6 minutes until puffed and golden, working in batches if needed.
  4. Stir the sugar and cinnamon together in a shallow bowl.
  5. Brush the warm donuts with melted butter, then roll in the cinnamon sugar and serve right away.

Notes

Don't toss the donut holes; air fry them for about 3 minutes for a little bonus treat.
