For breakfast this morning, I whipped up a batch of Air Fryer Copycat Starbucks Cheese Danish. They are truly amazing and baked up so great in my air fryer!

My son loves these at Starbucks, but they come with a pretty hefty price tag (for my budget), so I searched for an easy recipe. Once I found a recipe for them using Crescent Rolls, I knew I was all set. I am quickly becoming a master of Cresent rolls in the air fryer.

These only require a few ingredients, and the taste is awesome; they taste just like Starbucks!

How To Make Air Fryer Copycat Starbucks Cheese Danish

Ingredients Needed

• Crescent Rolls
• Cream Cheese
• Pure Vanilla Extract
• Granulated Sugar

Steps Needed To Make These

In a large mixing bowl, mix the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla.

Set the crescent dough onto a greased air fryer baking tray, and then place about 2 tablespoons of filling in the middle.  Layout two of the crescent rolls (you could use the sheets) and seal the seams together with your fingers; just pinch the sides together. To fold it, make a triangle with the sides and then fold the sides up. Set the tray in the air fryer oven for 4 minutes at 320 degrees F. (air frying setting)

PRO EXPERT TIPS 

• Make sure to leave space between each danish, so they cook evenly in the air fryer. 
  Feel free to check on the danish.
• If you find that the bottom is not cooking, you can flip the pastry over to ensure they are cooked evenly. Depending on how your air fryer cooks, you might need to extend or pull the cheese danish at a different time than in the recipe card.
• Feel free to change up the filling if you want a different flavor.
