Let’s face it. Donuts are not healthy. But then again, no one eats donuts because they think they’re healthy. But there’s great news! Thanks to your air fryer, you can enjoy delicious air fryer donuts prepared in your own kitchen with a little less guilt. In fact, there’s no need for frying oil when using your air fryer. A quick mist of your favorite oil or cooking spray will do the job without soaking the donuts in unhealthy oils full of saturated fat.
While you can make donuts from scratch, a quick and easy way to prepare air fryer donuts your family will love is to use a can of delicious, flaky biscuits. Simply cut a small hole in the biscuit, using a knife, bottle lid, or one-inch biscuit cutter to reduce prep time. In as little as 10 minutes, you can have scrumptious, sugar-coated donuts for a quick, easy breakfast or dessert.
While you can opt for buttermilk or butter-flavored flaky layers biscuits, I opted for the Pillsbury Flaky Layers biscuits with honey butter to add some extra sweetness. An extra option is to create your own sugary glaze or dip in a sugar and spice blend. The result is a fluffy, sugary treat that will kick-start your morning.
