Air Fryer Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls Recipe Tips

  • Cooking times vary. Each model of the air fryer is slightly different. Because they cook fast, you’ll need to keep a close watch on them.
  • Warm the frosting. Heating the frosting will allow it to be drizzled more easily and give you an ooey-gooey result! I recommend heating it in the microwave for 5-10 seconds.
  • Want extra frosting? You can also use regular vanilla frosting on these air fryer cinnamon rolls. Chocolate frosting also works!
  • Add some variety. Drizzle some melted chocolate or sprinkle with powdered sugar to add a little variety to this cinnamon roll air fryer recipe. Another fun option would be to add some caramel sauce before serving.

Storing & Reheating Instructions

  • Storing Instructions: Store leftover Air Fryer Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer freshness, refrigerate them for up to 5 days.
  • Reheating Instructions: Reheat cinnamon rolls in the air fryer at 320°F for 2–3 minutes until warm and soft. You can also microwave them for 15–20 seconds for a quick option.
