Ingredients
DOUGHNUTS
- 1 can pre-made flaky biscuit dough
- nonstick cooking spray
GLAZE
- ½ cup powdered sugar (55 g), sifted
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon whole milk
CINNAMON SUGAR
- ¼ cup granulated sugar (50 g)
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
CHOCOLATE GLAZE
- ½ cup semisweet chocolate chips (85 g)
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
- sprinkle, for topping
Directions
- Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (180°C).
- Separate the biscuits. Use the bottom of a large piping tip to punch out circles in the center of each biscuit, creating doughnuts and doughnut holes.
- Grease the air fryer basket with nonstick spray.
- Working in batches of 3–4 at a time, “fry” the doughnuts and doughnut holes for 5 minutes, until golden brown.
- Make the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk until smooth.
- Make the cinnamon sugar: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the sugar and cinnamon until combined.
- Make the chocolate glaze: In another small bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between, until smooth.
- Dip the doughnuts and doughnut holes in the glaze, cinnamon sugar, or chocolate glaze. Top with sprinkles, if desired.
