How To Make Air Fryer Cinnamon Roll Bubble Bites
Step One: Place your cinnamon rolls on a cutting board, then cut each cinnamon roll into 4 pieces.
Step Two: Roll them tightly into balls, and the tighter and firmer you make them, the less chance they will unroll during baking.
Step Three: Spray your air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray or olive oil spray, and then place them in the basket. Make sure they can roll around, so I did mine in 2 batches. Set the cook time for 3 minutes at air fryer temperature 340 degrees F, then after the 3 minutes, shake the basket and set for another 3 minutes.
Step Four: Meanwhile, make the icing, mix the icing that came with the rolls with the milk, then microwave. Plate them as they come out of the air fryer.
Air Fryer Cinnamon Roll Bubble Bites Recipe Tips
- Roll tightly – Make the balls firm to prevent them from unrolling while cooking.
- Spray the basket – Use nonstick spray or oil to prevent sticking in the air fryer.
- Cook in batches – Give the bites space to roll around for even cooking.
- Shake midway – Helps them brown evenly on all sides.
- Glaze while warm – The glaze will stick better and coat each bite nicely.
- Customize toppings – Add powdered sugar, sprinkles, or a drizzle of chocolate for extra fun.
Storing, Freezing & Reheating Instructions
- Storing: Store cooled bubble bites in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Keep them separate with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Freezing: Wrap each bubble bite individually in plastic wrap or foil, then place in a freezer-safe bag for up to 2 months. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
- Reheating: Warm bubble bites in the air fryer at 320°F for 2–3 minutes or microwave for 15–20 seconds. If glazed, reheat gently to prevent the glaze from melting too much.
Air Fryer Cinnamon Roll Bubble Bites Recipe Faqs
Can I use canned cinnamon rolls for this recipe? Yes! Pre-made cinnamon rolls work perfectly and make this recipe quick and easy.
Do I need to cut the rolls into equal pieces? It’s best to cut them evenly so all the bubble bites cook at the same rate.
Can I bake these in the oven instead of the air fryer? Absolutely! Bake at 350°F for 8–10 minutes or until golden brown.
How do I keep the bubble bites from unrolling? Roll the pieces tightly into balls and cook them in batches with space to move.
Can I add toppings or glaze variations? Yes! Try powdered sugar, chocolate drizzle, or sprinkles to customize each bite.
