Method
- 1
Unroll crescent dough into a rectangle, pressing seams together. Spread with softened butter.
- 2
Mix brown sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle evenly over the buttered dough.
- 3
Roll up tightly from the long side. Cut into 1-inch pieces.
- 4
Place cut-side up in the basket with space between them. Air fry at 350°F for 7-9 minutes until golden.
- 5
Beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Drizzle over warm rolls.
Pro tip. Use a sharp knife or dental floss to cut clean slices — a dull knife squishes the roll flat. Serve warm while the glaze is still dripping.
Why the air fryer wins here
- Ready in 10 minutes. The same dish takes about 17 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. Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for 3-5 minutes rather than the microwave so the outside crisps back up. See the reheat guide for exact times by food.
