Ingredients
For Cinnamon rolls
- 1 sheet Puff pastry (thawed)
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 80 grams of unsalted butter (room temperature)
- 5 tablespoon Brown sugar
For Icing
- 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon milk
Instructions
Step 1: Combine cinnamon, butter, and sugar in a small bowl. Mix well. Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F. Spread the puff pastry sheet gently and spread the cinnamon butter mixture across it in a thin layer. Roll the sheet gently with loose hands. Once done, cut the pastry roll into 1-inch thick pieces with the help of a sharp knife or any flavor-free dental floss.
Step 2: Transfer these to an air fryer’s basket and air fry at 400 degrees F for 7 minutes or until the rolls are cooked well and appear golden brown. Once done, take these and let them cool down to room temperature. Mix powdered sugar, lemon juice, and milk in a small bowl. Top the prepared cinnamon rolls with icing, and enjoy.
Tips to make the Best Air fryer Cinnamon Rolls
- Make sure to thaw the pastry before using it. I used a 9-ounce packet puff pastry sheet that was already rolled out; you can use this or the non-rolled ones to prepare your cinnamon rolls.
- Make sure to preheat your air fryer beforehand; it helps the pastry to puff nicely.
- Follow the defrosting instructions carefully given on the puff pastry’s package; every brand has different instructions.
- Make sure your pastry is well chilled, preventing it from becoming soggy and making it puff from the middle.
- There is no need to use any cooking spray or oil for this recipe, as the rolls already have enough butter to melt away while cooking and prevent them from sticking to the bottom.
- Powdered sugar is the same as icing sugar. Feel free to make any modifications to the icing; for thicker icing, add more sugar and for a thinner version, add more milk.
- The cooking time for this Air Fryer cinnamon rolls recipe may vary slightly according to the brand of your air fryer and the size of your cinnamon rolls. If, after 5-7 minutes, your pastry hasn’t appeared golden brown and puff, don’t worry, and feel free to add a few more minutes to the cooking time.
- Cinnamon rolls are best served warm with a chocolate dip.
How to store leftover Air fried Cinnamon rolls
