Description

These 2-ingredient Air Fryer Donut Bites are a quick and easy sweet treat made with self-raising flour and sweetened Greek yogurt. Light, fluffy, and perfectly coated in a cinnamon-sugar mix, they’re ready in just minutes using an air fryer, making a healthier alternative to traditional fried donuts.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Dough:

  • 140 g (1 cup) self-raising flour
  • 140 g (5 oz) sweetened Greek yogurt

For the Cinnamon-Sugar Coating:

  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Optional:

  • Melted chocolate for drizzling
  • Melted butter for brushing

Instructions

  1. Make the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the self-raising flour and sweetened Greek yogurt. Stir until a soft dough forms.
  2. Knead the Dough: Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently until smooth and free of dry flour patches. If sticky, lightly oil your hands to handle the dough easily.
  3. Shape the Doughnuts: Divide the dough into two portions and roll each into a 1-inch thick log. Cut into small pieces weighing about 8-12g each and roll into smooth balls between your palms.
  4. Preheat Air Fryer: Set the air fryer to 350°F (180°C) and preheat for 5 minutes. Lightly brush the basket with oil to prevent sticking.
  5. Air Fry the Doughnut Bites: Toss doughnut balls in melted butter and arrange them in the basket with space between each. Air fry for about 5 minutes until puffed and golden. Uneven browning is normal.
  6. Coat with Cinnamon Sugar: While doughnuts are warm, brush again with melted butter and immediately roll in the cinnamon-sugar mix to ensure it sticks perfectly.
  7. Serve: Enjoy immediately as is or drizzle with melted chocolate for an indulgent twist.

Notes

  • Kneading the dough gently helps produce fluffier donut bites.
  • Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket; giving space helps even cooking and puffing.
  • The doughnut bites may not brown evenly due to air fryer airflow.
  • Use melted butter generously for the cinnamon-sugar coating to help it adhere well.
  • Optional chocolate drizzle adds extra sweetness but increases calories.
