Description

Air Fryer Red Velvet Donuts are the perfect dessert or an amazing breakfast. I love serving them with my homemade cream cheese frosting.

Ingredients 

  • 1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons cocoa powder
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoons Red Food Coloring or Gel
  • 1 teaspoon Espresso Powder

Instructions

  • In one large mixing bowl, mix the flour, cocoa powder, brown sugar, and baking powder.
  • In another bowl, mix the buttermilk, butter, vanilla extra, and egg.
  • Then mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mix well, and then mix in the food coloring.
  • Grease your donut pan.
  • Fill the donut cavity with the batter.
  • Set the pan into the air fryer for 12-16 minutes at 320 degrees F, air fryer setting.
  • Test the donuts with a toothpick, when it comes out clean remove. Note: all air fryers cook at slightly different timing.
  • Let cool before adding the cream cheese frosting.
  • Plate, serve, and enjoy!
