Ingredients Needed For Air Fryer Semi-Homemade Cinnamon Rolls

- Granulated Sugar

- Cream Cheese
- Powdered Sugar
- Pure Vanilla Extract
- Milk or Cream
How To Make Air Fryer Semi-Homemade Cinnamon Rolls
Start by laying out your dough. Since you are using the Crescent Rounds, see how they are already pre-cut, they make your job a snap.
Melt your butter in a dish, and place it in the microwave. Use a pastry brush to spread the butter over the dough. Note: You will only use 1/2 of it. You will need more to prepare the baking dish. Then sprinkle the buttered dough with sugar and cinnamon.
Then in your baking pan (air fryer safe pan), place the brown sugar and the rest of the melted butter, mix well.
As you roll your dough, place them onto the baking sheet, right on top of the brown sugar and melted butter. Set the pan into the air fryer basket once you have finished making all of your cinnamon rolls. Set your timer for 9 minutes at 290 F. After the 9 minutes are up, check them. If they are still dough, add a couple of minutes.
Meanwhile, mix the icing ingredients, cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and the cream in a small bowl. Mix well until it’s smooth.
When the cinnamon rolls are cooked through, pour the icing directly over the cinnamon rolls.
Recipe Variations:
- You can use frozen biscuit dough for this recipe, the recipe and cooking time will be about the same. Make sure it’s fully defrosted.
- Add some other filings, in the ground cinnamon mixture, I have used mini chocolate chips, diced pecans or walnuts, or even shredded coconut.
- You can omit the topping if you want.
How To Store:
For best results, let the Air Fryer Semi-Homemade Cinnamon Rolls cool to room temperature and then place into an aright container. They will last at room temperature for a couple of days. For any longer storage, put them into the refrigerator.
You can reheat in the microwave or the air fryer before serving.
