Air-Fryer Canned Sweet Rolls: Quick, Easy, Delicious!

Air frying is a quick and easy way to make canned sweet rolls. You can have warm, fluffy, and delicious sweet rolls in just 10-15 minutes. To make them, you'll need to preheat your air fryer to 320-350°F, line the basket with aluminium foil or parchment paper, and then add your cinnamon rolls. You can use a can of refrigerated Pillsbury Grands, which is a beginner-friendly option. Make sure to space the rolls out so that the hot air can circulate and reach all the edges.

Preheat the air fryer to 320-350°F

Preheat your air fryer to 320-350°F. Line the air fryer basket with aluminium foil or a piece of parchment paper. This will prevent the cinnamon rolls from sticking to the basket and make clean-up easier. Once the air fryer has preheated, carefully place the cinnamon rolls into the basket, making sure to space them evenly so that the hot air can circulate and reach all of the edges.

Line the air fryer basket with aluminium foil or parchment paper

To make canned sweet rolls in an air fryer, you should first line the air fryer basket with aluminium foil or parchment paper. This will help to eliminate any sticking and make clean-up easier. It is important to ensure that the parchment paper is air fryer-safe. Once the basket is lined, preheat the air fryer to 320 degrees Fahrenheit.

When using aluminium foil, be sure to use a piece that is large enough to cover the entire bottom of the basket. This will help to ensure even cooking and prevent any sticking. If using parchment paper, it is important to use a piece that is specifically designed for air frying, as regular parchment paper may not be heat-resistant enough for the high temperatures of an air fryer.

When lining the basket, be sure to smooth out any wrinkles or creases in the foil or paper. This will help to ensure that the rolls cook evenly and prevent any sticking. Once the basket is lined and preheated, you can add the cinnamon rolls, being sure to space them evenly with one in each corner and one in the middle.

Depending on your air fryer model, you may need to adjust the cooking time slightly. For best results, keep an eye on the rolls during the last few minutes of cooking to ensure they don't overcook or burn.

Place the cinnamon rolls in the basket, evenly spaced

Once you've preheated your air fryer oven to 320-350°F and lined the basket with aluminium foil or parchment paper, it's time to place the cinnamon rolls inside. Open your can of cinnamon rolls and carefully place them into the basket, making sure to leave some space between them. You want to ensure even spacing so that the hot air can circulate and reach all the edges of the rolls. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to cook the rolls in batches so they're not overcrowded. Place one roll in each corner of the basket and one in the middle, or adjust the number and arrangement to suit your air fryer's size.

Air fry for 7-12 minutes

Once you've prepared your air fryer basket and added your cinnamon rolls, it's time to air fry! Place the basket into the air fryer and set the temperature to between 320°F and 350°F. The cooking time will depend on the temperature you choose: for 320°F, cook for 10 minutes; for 330°F, cook for 10-12 minutes; and for 350°F, cook for 7-9 minutes. If you're cooking at 330°F, use tongs to carefully flip the cinnamon rolls over after 6 minutes. Make sure there is some space between the rolls so that the hot air can circulate and reach all of their edges. Keep an eye on the rolls for the last few minutes to ensure they cook properly. Depending on your air fryer model, you may need to adjust the time slightly.

Flip the rolls over after 6 minutes

After 6 minutes, carefully flip the rolls over using tongs. This will ensure that the rolls cook evenly on both sides. Make sure that the rolls are not too close together, so that the hot air can circulate and reach all of the edges.
