Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ Cups Flour
  • 2 Tablespoons Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon Sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 4 Tablespoons Butter
  • ½ Granny Smith Apple
  • ¼ Cup Milk
  • ¼ Cup Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • Cooking Spray

Instructions

  • For the mixture, simply mix flour, 2 tablespoons of sugar, baking powder, salt, and half a teaspoon of cinnamon. To cut the butter into the mixture, use a pastry blender or two knives.
    1 ¼ Cups Flour, 2 Tablespoons Sugar, 1 teaspoon Baking powder, 1 teaspoon Sea salt, ½ teaspoon Cinnamon, 4 Tablespoons Butter
  • Once the flour mixture has a coarse texture, add the milk and stir.
    ¼ Cup Milk
  • Chop the apple into small pieces and mix it into the flour.
    ½ Granny Smith Apple
  • Place the dough on a work surface that has been lightly dusted with flour.
  • Knead the dough for a couple of minutes until it easily forms into a ball.
  • Shape the dough into small balls that are approximately the size of a walnut, avoiding making them as large as a golf ball.
  • For the best cooking outcome, we suggest adding a layer of parchment paper to the bottom of the air fryer basket. Then, just simply put the dough balls on the paper inside the basket.
  • Spray the dough balls with cooking spray.
  • Air fry the dough balls at 375 degrees for 3 to 9 minutes.
  • Combine ¼ cup of sugar with 1-2 teaspoons of cinnamon.
    ¼ Cup Sugar, 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • Remove the donut holes from the air fryer and roll them in the sugar and cinnamon to cover them.
  • Enjoy!!!!
