Air Fryer Apple Stuffed Donuts
Description
These Air Fryer Apple Stuffed Donuts wrap soft biscuit dough around a cinnamon-spiced apple filling, then finish with a buttery roll in cinnamon sugar. Made in under 20 minutes with no deep fryer — the perfect easy breakfast, brunch, or dessert.
Ingredients
- 8 biscuits, refrigerated
- 2 large apples, Granny Smith or Honeycrisp, sliced thin
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
Instructions
- Lay the biscuits on a cutting board and roll each into a larger, thinner circle.
- Slice the apples thin so they cook through in the short cook time.
- In a small bowl, stir together the cinnamon and sugar.
- Place an apple slice in the center of each dough round and add about a tablespoon of the cinnamon sugar.
- Wrap the dough into a sealed bundle, pinching the edges tightly so the filling won't leak.
- Lightly spray the air fryer basket with oil and add the bundles in a single layer (work in batches if needed).
- Air fry at 350°F for 5 to 7 minutes, until golden and puffed.
- Let cool just enough to handle, then dip each donut in melted butter.
- Roll in the remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture until coated.
- Plate, serve warm, and enjoy.
Equipment
- Cooking Spray
- Parchment Paper, optional
Notes
- Use firm apples so they hold their shape.
- Seal edges well to prevent leaks; don't overstuff.
- Butter the donuts while warm so the cinnamon sugar sticks.
- Reheat at 320°F for 2–3 minutes.
