Air Fryer Donuts and Adorable Donut Valentines! {free printable}

air fryer donuts

I have fond memories of my mother making homemade donuts when I was a child.  She did not make them often, but when she did, it was a big deal!  She used canned biscuit dough and fried up a big batch for us to enjoy.  Since I have been obsessed with making new things in my air fryer lately, (like these pop tarts and breakfast pockets) I wanted to make a sweet treat for the boys with these easy air fryer donuts.

Air Fryer Donuts

There really couldn’t be a more simple recipe than air fryer donuts.  They involve an air fryer, a can of biscuits, and whatever kind of icing and/or toppings that you like.  But man, are they delicious!

Use a donut cutter or any small circular object in your kitchen to cut out the holes from the biscuits.

You can make strawberry icing for your air fryer donuts:

These air fryer donuts are easy to make with refrigerated biscuit dough!

Ingredients

  • one can of your favorite biscuits, regular or jumbo, doesn't matter!
  • strawberry jam and greek yogurt for strawberry icing, optional
  • chocolate sauce, optional
  • sprinkles, optional
  • cooking spray, optional

Instructions

    1. Separate biscuits.  (If they are jumbo or "layers" biscuits, I separate them into two again or else they're a little thick.)
    2. Using a donut cutter or any small circular object in your kitchen, cut out the holes from the biscuits.
    3. Spray bottom of air fryer with cooking spray if desired.
    4. Place dough into your air fryer in one layer.
    5. Cook donuts on 350 degrees F for 5-7 minutes, checking every minute after 3.  They cook quickly.
    6. Flip donuts for the last minute or so if you feel they need it.
    7. Let cool and enjoy!

    To make strawberry icing:

    1. Mix equal parts strawberry jam and plain greek yogurt.
    2 .Drizzle on your donut.
    3. Top with sprinkles and enjoy!

    To make chocolate donuts, simply drizzle chocolate syrup on top!
