Tips:

  • Use a good quality biscuit dough. This will make all the difference in the final product.
  • Roll out the dough to the correct thickness. If the dough is too thick, the donuts will be dense and doughy. If the dough is too thin, the donuts will be crispy and overcooked.
  • Use a sharp donut cutter. This will help to create clean, even donuts.
  • Don't overcrowd the air fryer. This will prevent the donuts from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the donuts until they are golden brown. This will ensure that they are cooked through.
  • Serve the donuts warm or at room temperature. They can be topped with your favorite glaze or frosting.
