Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (10 count) can refrigerated biscuit dough
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Cut each biscuit into four equal pieces. You will have about 40 small dough pieces.
- Preheat your air fryer to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon for the coating. Set aside.
- Brush the melted butter lightly over the outside of each dough piece. You can toss them gently in the butter if preferred.
- Place the buttered dough pieces in the air fryer basket in a single layer, working in batches if necessary. Do not overcrowd the basket.
- Air fry for 5 to 7 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the bites are golden brown and puffed.
- Immediately transfer the hot churro bites to the cinnamon sugar mixture. Toss gently until fully coated.
- Serve the churro bites warm.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, spray the dough lightly with cooking spray before tossing in the sugar mixture.
- If you prefer a softer coating, mix 1/4 cup powdered sugar with 1 teaspoon of milk and drizzle over the warm bites after coating them in cinnamon sugar.
- Check the bites at 5 minutes; air fryer models vary in cooking speed.
