How to Make Air Fryer Cinnamon Roll Bites

1. Preheat your air fryer to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and while in preheats, cut the cinnamon rolls into quarter.
2. Then spray the basket of your air fryer with non-stick cooking spray. Add the cinnamon roll quarters to your preheated air fryer.
3. Cook for 6 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked all the way through.
4. Use tongs to take the bites out the air fryer and place them onto a serving plate in a single layer. Warm the original icing from the can in the microwave for about 15 seconds, then pour evenly over the bites.
5. Serve immediately!

Can cinnamon rolls go in an air fryer?

Yes! Canned cinnamon rolls actually bake really well in the air fryer. However, it is important that you cook them without the icing and grease the air fryer basket well so that they don’t stick.

What to Serve with Air Fryer Cinnamon Roll Bites

If you’d rather keep these bites icing free to use as a dipper, then mix the canned cinnamon roll icing with some powdered sugar and milk to make an icing with dipping consistency. You can also make a cream cheese icing to dip them in!

Serving these little bites for breakfast? Then pair them with things like ham and cheese egg muffins or air fryer sausage links for plenty of protein. They’d go great with things like sheet pan eggs and breakfast burritos too.
