Ingredients
- 4 small flour tortillas
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer: Set the air fryer to 350°F (175°C) and allow it to preheat fully to ensure even cooking.
- Mix cinnamon sugar: In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon thoroughly to create the cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Butter the tortillas: Using a brush, evenly spread the melted unsalted butter over each of the four small flour tortillas, ensuring full coverage for flavor and crispness.
- Sprinkle cinnamon sugar: Evenly distribute the cinnamon sugar mixture over each buttered tortilla, making sure each one is well coated.
- Roll and cut: Tightly roll each tortilla into a cylinder, then carefully cut each roll into 1-inch wide pieces to form bite-sized rolls.
- Arrange in air fryer: Place the tortilla rolls in a single layer inside the air fryer basket, avoiding overlap to allow even cooking and crispiness.
- Cook: Air fry the rolls for 5 to 7 minutes until they turn golden brown and crispy, checking for doneness near the 5-minute mark.
- Cool and serve: Let the cinnamon sugar tortilla rolls cool slightly after cooking to avoid burns and to enhance their crispy texture before serving.
Notes
- Ensure tortillas are tightly rolled to prevent unrolling during cooking.
- You can adjust the cinnamon sugar ratio based on your sweetness preference.
- Serve warm for the best texture and flavor.
- For extra indulgence, drizzle with honey or a light glaze after cooking.
- Use small tortillas for manageable bite-sized rolls.
