Ingredients
Scale
For the Rolls
- 4 small flour tortillas
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
For the Topping
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer: Set your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) and allow it to preheat while you prepare the rolls.
- Mix cinnamon sugar: In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon until evenly blended for a perfect sweet spice mix.
- Butter the tortillas: Using a pastry brush, evenly coat each flour tortilla with the melted unsalted butter, ensuring each surface is well covered to help the cinnamon sugar stick.
- Apply cinnamon sugar: Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the buttered tortillas, covering all areas for consistent sweetness.
- Roll and cut: Roll each tortilla tightly into a log shape, then cut each roll into 1-inch pieces to create bite-sized cinnamon sugar rolls.
- Arrange in air fryer: Place the tortilla roll pieces in a single layer in the air fryer basket, avoiding overlap to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
- Air fry the rolls: Cook the rolls for 5-7 minutes at 350°F until they turn golden brown and crispy.
- Cool and serve: Remove the cinnamon rolls from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before enjoying a warm, delicious snack.
Notes
- Ensure the rolls are placed in a single layer to cook evenly and get crispy on all sides.
- For extra flavor, you can drizzle a light glaze of powdered sugar mixed with milk after air frying.
- The rolls are best served warm but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
- Use small tortillas for bite-sized pieces; larger tortillas can be cut bigger or rolled thinner accordingly.
