Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (16.3 ounce) can refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Remove the biscuits from the can and separate them. Cut each biscuit into four equal pieces.
- In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon for the coating.
- Brush each biscuit piece lightly with the melted butter on all sides.
- Place the buttered biscuit pieces into the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they do not touch. Work in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
- Air fry at 350°F (175°C) for 5 to 7 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time.
- Remove the hot biscuit bites from the air fryer.
- Immediately toss the hot bites in the cinnamon sugar mixture until fully coated.
- Return the coated bites to the air fryer basket and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes at 350°F (175°C) to set the sugar and increase crispiness.
- Serve warm.
Notes
- For maximum crispiness, do not skip the second, short cooking time after applying the sugar coating.
- If your air fryer runs hot, check the bites at 4 minutes during the first cook time to prevent burning.
- Use real butter for the best flavor adhesion to the dough.
