Description

These 12-Minute Air Fryer Cinnamon Sugar Tortilla Rolls are a quick and delicious treat perfect for breakfast or a sweet snack. Crispy on the outside and warm with cinnamon-sugar goodness on the inside, these rolls are made by simply rolling up tortillas with melted butter and a cinnamon-sugar mixture, then air frying to golden perfection.


Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 4 small flour tortillas (6-inch)
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Prepare the cinnamon sugar mixture: In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Mix well until fully blended.
  2. Brush tortillas with butter: Lay the flour tortillas flat. Using a pastry brush, evenly coat each tortilla with melted unsalted butter.
  3. Sprinkle cinnamon sugar: Generously sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the buttered side of each tortilla, ensuring an even layer for flavor.
  4. Roll the tortillas: Starting from one edge, tightly roll up each tortilla into a compact cylinder.
  5. Air fry the rolls: Place the rolled tortillas into the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure they do not touch. Air fry at 370°F (188°C) for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure even crispiness.
  6. Serve warm: Remove the cinnamon sugar tortilla rolls from the air fryer and let them cool for a minute before serving. Enjoy warm as a sweet snack or dessert.

Notes

  • You can use whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas as a variation.
  • For extra indulgence, drizzle with honey or cream cheese glaze after air frying.
  • If you don’t have an air fryer, these can be baked in an oven at 375°F for 12-15 minutes on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Be careful when flipping the rolls in the air fryer to keep them intact.
