Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tube (12.4 oz) refrigerated cinnamon rolls (with included icing)
- 1 large Granny Smith apple, peeled and finely diced
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Optional: 1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
Instructions
- In a small skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the diced apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Sauté for about 4-5 minutes until the apples are tender and the sugar has formed a light syrup. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Lightly grease the bottom of your air fryer basket or line it with a piece of parchment paper cut to fit. If using parchment, ensure it does not cover all the holes so air can still circulate properly.
- Open the tube of cinnamon rolls and separate them. Place the rolls in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Make sure they are barely touching or have a small amount of space between them, as they will expand while cooking.
- Spoon the prepared apple mixture evenly over the top of each cinnamon roll. If you are using nuts, sprinkle them over the apples now.
- Set your air fryer to 330°F (165°C). Cook the rolls for 8 to 10 minutes. Check them at the 8-minute mark; they should be golden brown on top and cooked through in the center.
- Carefully remove the rolls from the air fryer. While they are still warm, drizzle the included icing over the top of the apples and rolls. Serve immediately.
