- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp melted butter
Instructions
- 1. Mix Dry Ingredients
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.
- 2. Combine Wet Ingredients
- In another bowl, mix the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- 3. Create the Batter
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep donuts light and airy.
- 4. Shape Your Donuts
- Lightly flour your countertop and roll out the dough to about half an inch thick. Use a donut cutter or two round cookie cutters (one larger than the other) to cut out donut shapes.
- 5. Prepare Air Fryer
- Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C). Once heated, spray the basket with nonstick cooking spray.
- 6. Air Fry Donuts
- Place a few donuts in the basket without overcrowding. Cook for about six minutes or until golden brown, flipping halfway through for even cooking.
- 7. Glaze and Enjoy
- Let them cool slightly before dipping them in a sweet glaze or rolling them in cinnamon sugar for added indulgence!
