Ingredients
Equipment
Steps
- 1
Separate the cinnamon rolls and cut each one into quarters.
- 2
Toss the pieces in melted butter, then coat with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
- 3
Place bites in a single layer in the air fryer basket lined with parchment, leaving space between each piece.
- 4
Air fry at 325°F for 10–12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until golden brown and cooked through.
- 5
While bites cook, whisk together cream cheese, powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth.
- 6
Drizzle the warm cinnamon roll bites generously with the cream cheese glaze and serve immediately.
Tip: Use a lower temperature than you might expect — cinnamon rolls brown quickly on the outside while staying raw inside at higher temps.
