Ingredients
- 4 small flour tortillas
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready for a perfect, even cook.
- Mix Cinnamon Sugar: In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon until well blended.
- Butter the Tortillas: Using a brush, evenly coat each tortilla with the melted unsalted butter to help the cinnamon sugar stick and create a golden crisp.
- Sprinkle Cinnamon Sugar: Generously sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the buttered side of each tortilla.
- Roll and Slice: Roll each tortilla tightly into a log shape, then cut the rolls into 1-inch pieces to create bite-sized treats.
- Arrange in Air Fryer: Place the tortilla rolls in a single layer in the air fryer basket to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
- Cook: Air fry the rolls at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes or until they turn golden brown and crispy on the outside.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the cinnamon sugar tortilla rolls to cool slightly before serving to enjoy their perfect texture.
Notes
- Make sure to place the rolls in a single layer to avoid sogginess and promote even crisping.
- Use small tortillas for perfect bite-sized rolls; larger tortillas may need to be cut differently.
- These can be served warm or at room temperature, and make a great quick dessert or snack.
- Optionally, you can drizzle with a little honey or serve with a dipping sauce like chocolate or caramel for extra indulgence.
