Ingredients

  • 8 oz can of biscuits
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1-2 teaspoons stevia 1/4 cup of table sugar can be substituted
  • cooking oil spray I used avocado oil

Instructions

  • Lay the biscuits on a flat surface. Use a small circle cookie cutter or a biscuit cutter to cut holes in the middle of the biscuits. I actually used a protein powder scoop :-)
  • Spray the air fryer basket with oil.
  • Place the donuts in the air fryer. Spray the donuts with oil. Do not stack the donuts. Cook in two batches if needed.
  • Cook for 4 minutes on 360 degrees.
  • Open the air fryer and flip the donuts. Cook for an additional 4 minutes.
  • Repeat for the remaining donuts.
  • Spritz the donuts with additional oil. 
  • Add the cinnamon and sugar to separate bowls.
  • Dip the donuts in the cinnamon and sugar. Serve!

Notes

Adjust the cinnamon and sugar noted above to fit your taste. I do not add refined sugar to food while cooking, so I use stevia. Feel free to add your preferred sugar or sweetener. Taste a donut, and adjust the servings as necessary.
For extended use, store the donuts in sealable, plastic bags. If you want the donuts to stay crisp, reheat using the air fryer. This will bring back the crunch.
