Blueberry Lemon Cinnamon Rolls

Method

  1. 1

    Unroll each cinnamon roll slightly and tuck 4-5 blueberries into the layers. Re-roll.

  2. 2

    Place in the air fryer basket, leaving space between each roll for expansion.

  3. 3

    Air fry at 340°F for 10-12 minutes until puffed and golden on top.

  4. 4

    While baking, mix the included icing with softened cream cheese, lemon zest, and lemon juice.

  5. 5

    Drizzle lemon cream cheese glaze over warm rolls. Serve immediately.

Pro tip. Low temperature is key — cinnamon rolls burn on the outside before cooking through at high heat. Space them out; they puff up significantly. Fresh blueberries burst into jammy pockets inside.

Why the air fryer wins here

  • Ready in 12 minutes. The same dish takes about 20 in a conventional oven, plus preheating.
  • Fast-moving hot air browns the outside before the inside dries out, so you get color without babysitting.
  • Cleanup is a basket, not a sheet pan and a splattered stovetop.

Storing and reheating

Refrigerate perishable leftovers within 2 hours, or within 1 hour above 90°F. Reheat leftovers to 165°F (74°C) throughout, measured with a food thermometer. USDA leftover safety guidance.

Keep leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. To bring them back, air fry at 320°F for 2-3 minutes. Add the glaze after reheating — glaze in the air fryer turns to caramel. Full reheat guide for cinnamon rolls.
