Description

Air Fryer Pumpkin Fritters are so good! If you have been looking for the perfect and easy way to make a homemade pumpkin fritter in minutes, this is one of my favorite recipes!

Ingredients 

Pumpkin Fritters:

  • 1 package biscuits, frozen thawed or refrigerated
  • 1/2 cup pecans, diced
  • 1/4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter, unsalted and melted

Cinnamon Sugar Coating:

  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for a few minutes.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the diced pecans, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, granulated sugar, and melted unsalted butter. Mix these ingredients until well combined.
  • Take each biscuit from the package and flatten it using your hands or a rolling pin. You want them to be about 1/4 inch thick.
  • Place a spoonful of the pumpkin mixture onto the center of each flattened biscuit.
  • Fold the biscuit dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape, sealing the edges by pressing with a fork. Ensure that the fritters are well-sealed to prevent the filling from leaking out during cooking.
  • Lightly grease the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  • Place the pumpkin-filled fritters in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not touching each other. You may need to cook them in batches if your air fryer is small.
  • Air fry the fritters at 350°F (175°C) for approximately 6-8 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and are cooked through. Cooking times may vary depending on your air fryer model, so keep an eye on them.
  • Remove the pumpkin fritters from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before serving. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar or serve with a drizzle of maple syrup for added sweetness.
