Air Fryer Sugar Knots are absolutely sinful. They make such an amazing snack. My kids love them; they are so easy to make in the air fryer.

I used to make these with pizza dough, so this recipe will work perfectly if you have some pizza dough on hand. Just switch out the biscuits with the pizza dough.

By the way, I use Pillsbury Grands, which are light and fluffy, and if you are lucky enough to find them with the butter already cut in, that will make these amazing.

These are great, easy, and absolutely delicious, and you can serve them morning, noon, or night. My kids are huge pans of making them for a late-night snack.

Brush the butter on the biscuit, then dip it into the cinnamon/sugar mixture. Spray your air fryer basket with olive oil spray so they don’t stick. As you coat them, place them in your air fryer basket.

Some Pro Tips For Making This Recipe:

  • Spray Your Air Fryer: Make sure to spray your air fryer basket with cooking spray. Otherwise, the dough will stick as it cooks up.
  • Dough Sticking? If you find that your dough is sticking, use a piece of parchment paper to line the air fryer basket.
  • Serving Ideas: Right before serving, brush with more butter and sprinkle some more cinnamon or sugar on top.
  • Eat Them Hot: Eat them while they are hot. As they cool, the taste diminishes. 
  • Variation: These can be made with just melted butter and herbs.

How To Store Air Fryer Sugar Knots

While these taste better fresh, you can store them for a day or two if you have any leftovers.

Let them cool to room temperature, and then place them in a resealable bag. Leave them on the counter for a day or two. 

How To Freeze Biscuit Dough

Biscuit dough does not freeze well, so for best results, make a new batch every time you want to eat them!
