Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls in Air Fryer

I had a can of pumpkin cinnamon rolls that I bought from Aldi and tested them out in the air fryer and they turned out pretty good. This however works with any brand of canned cinnamon rolls like Pillsbury. So, I thought I’d share the temperature and time that I used with you. I’m going to try to make this post as short as possible because the recipe is using canned cinnamon rolls and all you want is the time and temperature right? 

This works with regular-sized cinnamon rolls, not the mini versions.

How to make Air Fryer Cinnamon Rolls (from Canned) 

For the full recipe please see recipe card below. 

Set the temperature to 350 degrees. If your air fryer requires preheating, let it preheat. Some air fryers do and some don’t. 

Place parchment paper on the bottom of your air fryer basket and then place the cinnamon rolls on top of the parchment paper. Parchment paper is not necessary) 

Cook the cinnamon rolls for 8 to 10 minutes. Take the cinnamon rolls out and frost them. Enjoy! 

Pretty easy right? 

What air fryers are best?

I've had 3 or 4 different air fryers or the past 5 years and each one of them has worked very well with the air fryer recipes on this site. If you want to be able to cook more food for your family at once then get an air fryer with a large basket such as 5.3 quarts. Look for ones that say nonstick on them and has multiple program settings.

Power XL Air Fryer 5.3 Quart Basket. - This was my very first air fryer.

Our 5.3QT Power Air-Fryer comes in handy in preparing amazing meals from your cookbook, and frying a variety of dishes, such as: French fries, chicken, steak, roasts, fish tacos and sticks, waffle fries, pies, pudding and donuts.

Ninja Foodi Grill and Air Fryer - This air fryer works very well too but the air fryer setting doesn't go below 300 degrees. If there's a recipe that calls for lower temperatures you have to use the bake setting. It air frys, roasts, grills, and dehydrates food.

Cosori 4 Qt Air Fryer- This air fryer doesn't require any preheating and has several different functions for cooking chicken, meat, frozen foods, etc. There are 5 different functions.

Air fryer temperature settings vary according to brand and model. If your air fryer does not have the exact temperature setting called for in the recipe, consult your manual for suggested temperature settings.

What is an Air Fryer? 

An air fryer is a kitchen appliance that cooks by circulating hot air around the food using the convection mechanism. It is a downsized version of the convection oven. 

Tips for using Air Fryers 

Preheating: Some air fryers require preheating and some do not. Be sure to check your air fryer manual. Mine does not require preheating. If the food ever burns or doesn’t cook properly this could be why the recipe didn’t work for you. 

Overcrowding: Do not overcrowd the basket. Some food will not cook properly or all the way through. 

Oil: One of the reasons why air fryers are so great is because food doesn’t need a lot of oil. Just a small amount! 

Not every air fryer cooks food the same. I always check half ways to see if it is getting close to near done. If it isn't done, continue cooking longer. 

What Air Fryer Do I have? 

For Christmas last year I got the Ninja Foodi Grill and it is my favorite so far because it can do so many things other than just air fryer!
