How to Make Air Fryer Cinnamon Rolls

Step 1:

Make the dough. In a large bowl, add the self-rising flour, milk, and melted butter. Mix until well combined until it forms into a dough.

Step 2:

Make the filling. In a different bowl, add melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and cornstarch. You can also add salt if you want to. Mix until well combined.

Step 3:

Transfer the dough to a floured surface and roll it into a rectangular shape.

Step 4:

Evenly spread the cinnamon roll filling on the dough, then roll lengthwise.

Step 5:

Using a floss or sharp serrated knife, cut the roll into 1-inch thick pieces. Squish each piece to help them stay together.

Step 6:

Grease your air fryer basket with oil. Place the cinnamon rolls, making sure they are well-spaced. Air fry at 350F for five to six minutes. Keep an eye on them.

Step 7:

Make the icing by whisking all ingredients in a bowl. Drizzle the icing on top of the cinnamon rolls. Serve and enjoy!
