How To Make Air Fryer Crescent Roll Apple Danish

Crescent Rolls

Start by laying out the dough. I try to pinch the seam with my fingers closed. Brush the dough with melted butter, sprinkle the cinnamon/sugar mixture over the melted butter.

Crescent Rolls

Then use your hands and roll up the dough into a long braid.  Then cut the braid, into 2 equal portions and then loop the dough around itself, so it forms a circle.

Apple in Center

Place your circles onto a greased air fryer tray or a greased air fryer basket (both sprayed with olive oil) Add the diced apples to the middle of the dough. Set the tray or basket into the air fryer and air fry for 5 minutes at 330 degrees F (air fryer setting)

While the pastry is cooking, mix the powdered sugar and milk to make the icing. Drizzle the icing over the finished pastry.

Other Pie Fillings You Can Use:

This can be made with various pie fillings, including peach, cherry, strawberry, raspberry, and lemon.

Leftovers

This is an easy recipe to make ahead of time. If you have any leftovers, place them into an airtight container. They will last for about 2 to 3 days.

How To Reheat: If you want to reheat or heat them, place them into the microwave or the air fryer basket and heat them until warmed up.

Make-Ahead

This is a great recipe that you can make ahead of time, and they make for a great brunch or dessert to bring to a potluck.

I usually assemble them ahead of time, and then when it’s almost ready to serve them up, I air fry them up.

Freezing an Apple Danish?

These danish do not freeze well, and since they only take minutes to assemble, you are best by making a fresh batch when you want to eat or serve them.

Description

This is such an easy breakfast or dessert to make. My kids absolutely love them. Today, I used canned apples, but during apple picking time, switch out the canned for fresh, and they are fabulous. This will soon become a family favorite, and it’s really kid-approved, with the drizzle of icing on top.
