1. Preheat the air fryer to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
To make air fryer donuts, you’ll need to preheat your air fryer to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Then, you’ll need to gather your ingredients and tools. For the donuts, you’ll need all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, milk, an egg, and unsalted butter. You’ll also need a piping bag and a circular cookie cutter. To make the donut batter, start by whisking together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, milk, and egg. Then, add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until everything is well combined. Finally, add in the melted butter and mix until the batter is smooth. Once the batter is ready, transfer it to the piping bag and pipe it into the air fryer basket. Make sure to pipe the batter into the basket in a circular motion, using the cookie cutter as a guide. Then, cook the donuts for about 5 minutes, or until they’re golden brown. Let the donuts cool for a few minutes before glazing them. To make the glaze, you’ll need confectioners’ sugar, milk, and vanilla extract. Whisk all of the ingredients together until the glaze is smooth. Then, dip the donuts into the glaze and set them on a wire rack to cool. These air fryer donuts are best enjoyed the day they’re made. But if you have any leftovers, they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
