Description

Delicious and fluffy air fryer biscuits made from refrigerated canned biscuits in just 12 minutes.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package (16.3 oz / 460 g) refrigerated canned biscuits, Pillsbury Grands – Homestyle Buttermilk Biscuits
  • light cooking spray

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Air Fryer: Start by preheating your air fryer to a high temperature. You will want it nice and toasty, which makes a big difference for achieving biscuits that puff up beautifully. If you skip this step, your biscuits might turn out flat.
  2. Arrange Biscuits in Basket: Place the biscuits in the air fryer basket, keeping them in a single layer. This helps them cook evenly, so you will end up with a lovely golden crust all around. Avoid stacking them, or you risk some being doughy in the middle.
  3. Air Fry to Perfection: Cook the biscuits for about 10 minutes. You will know they are ready when they turn golden brown and fill the room with a yummy aroma. If they are looking a bit doughy at first, resist the urge to leave them in longer; they will finish cooking once they are out.
  4. Let Them Rest: Give the biscuits a few minutes to cool down after they come out of the air fryer. This step is key for letting them set up and helps avoid that overly soft texture. Just remember, do not dive in too quickly, or you might burn your tongue!

Notes

  • Storage Tips: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
  • Expert Tips: If biscuits are sticking to the basket, try applying a generous layer of cooking spray before placing them.
  • For best results, arrange biscuits in a single layer in the air fryer to achieve even cooking.
  • If your biscuits turn out doughy inside, extend the cooking time by 1-2 minutes, checking for doneness.
  • When using frozen biscuits, increase the cooking time to about 12 minutes for optimal results.
  • If you are short on time, these biscuits can cook quicker than traditional methods, so keep an eye on them while they bake.
