• Spray your air fryer with a canola oil cooking spray to make it non-stick, then place donuts in the fry basket (as many as will fit without them touching). You can add the donut holes if they fit.
• Air fry until they start to turn golden, then flip after 3 to 4 minutes. Continue to cook for another 3 to 4 minutes until they are golden on all sides and cooked through. The donut holes will take less time.
• Combine the sugar and the cinnamon in a shallow bowl.
• When the donuts are finished cooking, transfer to a sheet pan, then begin brushing them with the melted butter and dip to coat all sides in the cinnamon-sugar.
• Enjoy immediately.
