Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 refrigerated biscuit (2 oz.) I use Pillsbury Grands Flaky Original Biscuits
  • 1 tsp butter
  • 1 tsp brown sugar
  • 2-3 Tbsp powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp milk or use water

Instructions

  • Cut one biscuit into eight pieces. Cut in half, cut each half in half and then again cut each of the four pieces in half. Roll each piece of biscuit dough into a ball.
  • In a bowl combine 1 Tbsp granulated sugar and 1/2 tsp cinnamon. Mix to combine.
  • Add in biscuit pieces and toss to coat with sugar mixture.
  • Spray a 6 oz. ramekin with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Add in biscuit pieces. You can sprinkle in any remaining cinnamon sugar if you like, or leave it out.
  • In a small bowl combine melted butter and brown sugar. Pour mixture over biscuit pieces.
  • Place ramekin in air fryer on the air fryer setting at 330 degrees F for 7 minutes. To bake in the oven, preheat oven to 350 degrees F and bake for 20 minutes or until dough is cooked through.
  • Remove from the air fryer ad cool for a few minutes.While cooling mix up the glaze if you are adding. Combine 2-3 Tbsp of powdered sugar with just enough milk or water to make a nice drizzling consistency. Start with just a small amount and add more as needed.

Notes

  1. I like to line my air fryer with a paper liner in case anything bubbles over or spills. Makes clean up much easier.
  2. When I freeze the leftover biscuits, I lay them out on a cookie sheet and flash freeze them until frozen solid. Then I put them into a zippered freezer bag and I can remove them one at a time as needed.
  3. If you don't want to use store bought biscuits you could make your own biscuits. Use this recipe for small batch biscuits.
