Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 16.3 ounce can flaky biscuits
- 1 cup apple cider
Instructions
- Line a tray with parchment paper or place a wire rack aside for the finished donuts.
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together the sugar and cinnamon. Set this mixture aside—your donut dust.
- Simmer the apple cider in a small saucepan over medium-high heat for a few minutes, allowing it to reduce slightly before setting it aside for later use.
- Open the biscuit dough and separate the biscuits. Use a round object like a water bottle cap to punch holes in the centers to shape them like donuts.
- Prepare your air fryer basket by lining it with a parchment round or spraying it lightly with oil.
- Working in batches, place four donuts at a time in the air fryer basket, ensuring they don’t touch to allow for even cooking.
- Air fry at 350°F for 3 minutes. Then, flip the donuts and fry for another 3 minutes until golden brown on both sides.
- Transfer the hot donuts to the tray or wire rack and continue with any remaining dough.
- While still warm, brush each donut with the reduced apple cider and immediately toss them in the cinnamon sugar mixture to coat. Ensure every surface is covered for that classic finish.
- Serve immediately and enjoy these warm, flavorful donuts.
Notes
Feel free to adjust the sugar and cinnamon ratio to suit your taste.
For a fun twist, try adding chopped nuts to the cinnamon sugar mix.
Serve these donuts fresh for the best flavor and texture.
