Delicious and easy Air Fryer Jelly Donuts made with biscuit dough filled with your favorite jelly, air fried to golden perfection, then brushed with butter and coated in sugar for a sweet, homemade treat.

Ingredients

Scale

Dough and Filling

  • 1 can (16 oz) biscuit dough
  • 1/2 cup jelly or jam (any flavor)

Coating

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dough: Take the biscuit dough from the can and flatten each biscuit into a 3-4 inch circle using your hands or a rolling pin.
  2. Fill with jelly: Place about one teaspoon of jelly in the center of each flattened biscuit circle, then fold the dough over and pinch the edges firmly to seal the jelly inside.
  3. Preheat the air fryer: Set your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) and allow it to preheat for 3-5 minutes.
  4. Air fry the donuts: Place the jelly-filled dough pieces in the air fryer basket in a single layer without touching, and air fry for 6-8 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Butter and sugar coating: Remove the donuts from the air fryer and immediately brush them with melted butter, then roll them in granulated sugar until fully coated.
  6. Serve warm: Let the donuts cool for a few minutes, then enjoy them warm for the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • Ensure the jelly is sealed well to prevent leaking during cooking.
  • You can use any flavor of jelly or jam according to your preference.
  • If your air fryer basket is small, cook the donuts in batches to avoid overcrowding.
  • For an extra special touch, sprinkle powdered sugar or cinnamon sugar instead of granulated sugar.
  • Donuts are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 day.
