SOME TIPS FOR MAKING HOMEMADE AIR FRYER DOUGHNUT HOLES:
- Check your donuts frequently as they cook up. Since every air fryer is slightly different, your time may be slightly different.
- This recipe can be cooked in the Ninja Foodi, GoWise, Nuwave, and other Air Fryer Basket or oven models.
- You can use any donut pan that fits in your air fryer.
- If you want the powdered sugar to really stick, coat them in melted butter first.
Coatings:
Today, I used a simple powdered sugar-coating, but there are a few others that are just as simple:
Cinnamon Sugar:
Combine 1/2 cup of granulated sugar and one teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and mix together. They roll your donuts into melted butter and the cinnamon sugar mixture.
Let cool slightly before serving.
Powdered Sugar Icing:
Combine 1 cup of powdered sugar and 2-3 tablespoons of milk in a bowl, mix, they dunk your donut holes into the mixture.
Let sit for a couple of minutes before serving.
What Donut Pans Can You Use In The Air Fryer?
Today, I used this donut pan I found at Williams Sonoma. But there are several options that you can purchase as well:
Wilton Non-Stick Donut Hole Baking Pan, 20-Cavity
If you do not have a pan, you can also roll them and place them into the air fryer, just space them out, so they don’t stick together.
