Are you wondering if you can make cinnamon rolls in your air fryer? The answer is yes! We show you exactly how to make air fryer cinnamon rolls in this post!

Cinnamon roll with icing slathered on top on white plate.

I don’t know about you, but getting an air fryer has been a total game changer. I love it for so many things – making appetizers (like mozzarella sticks and lemon pepper wings) extra crispy and delicious, heating up food for my kiddos (hello chicken nuggets), and making healthy dinner items like air fryer Brussels sprouts and air fryer chicken parmesan. 

But did you know you can make desserts in your air fryer? You totally can! Now, I don’t know if you actually classify cinnamon rolls as a dessert or a breakfast item. Either way, you are going to LOVE these delicious air fried cinnamon buns! And if you are looking for more cinnamon roll recipes, try instant pot pillsbury cinnamon rolls, Crock Pot Cinnamon Roll Casserole and instant pot monkey bread.

Can you cook canned cinnamon rolls in an air fryer?

Yes. This recipe uses canned cinnamon rolls. They cook up quickly in the air fryer – just 5 minutes at 350F and they are ready!
