Canned Cinnamon Roll Donuts are my son’s favorite breakfast! Make these Instant Pot Duo Crisp Cinnamon Roll Donuts using the Air Fryer setting on the Duo Crisp! Canned cinnamon rolls transformed into donuts and donut-bites.
I love making homemade goodies for my family, but I am not afraid to use shortcuts here and there. These cinnamon roll donut bites are one that are a fun change. While I love peaches and cream quinoa in the Instant Pot, I also like to have a bit of a guilty pleasure here and there.

- 1 can of Cinnamon Rolls
- Cooking spray
Instructions

- Air fry setting - 345 degrees for 4 minutes. Then take off crisping lid and check to ensure donuts are cooked through.
- Remove and set on a cooling rack.
- When you are done cooking donuts, take the icing the cinnamon rolls came with and place in microwave for 10-15 seconds. This will thin it up a bit. Then dip each donut in, and enjoy.
