Ingredients
Scale
For the Twists
- 1 sheet puff pastry dough (thawed if frozen)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
For the Cinnamon Sugar
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough: Roll out the puff pastry dough on a clean surface and cut it into long strips, about 1 inch wide.
- Twist the Dough: Take each strip and twist it gently several times to form a spiral shape.
- Brush with Butter: Using a pastry brush, coat each twisted strip evenly with the melted butter to ensure golden browning during cooking.
- Air Fry the Twists: Place the twists in a single layer inside the air fryer basket. Air fry at 370°F (188°C) for 7-9 minutes or until the twists are puffed up and golden brown, flipping halfway through for even cooking.
- Coat with Cinnamon Sugar: While the twists are still warm, toss them in a bowl mixed with cinnamon and sugar until well coated.
- Serve: Allow the twists to cool slightly, then serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- Make sure the puff pastry is properly thawed before using to avoid tearing.
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket; cook in batches if needed for even crispiness.
- You can adjust the cinnamon sugar ratio based on your preferred level of sweetness and spice.
- For a dairy-free option, substitute butter with melted coconut oil or margarine.
- Ensure the air fryer temperature is preheated for consistent cooking results.
