Description

Delightfully charming and quick to prepare, these heart-shaped cinnamon rolls are made effortlessly in an air fryer. Perfect for a romantic breakfast or special occasion, they transform classic cinnamon rolls into adorable heart shapes in just minutes.


Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 Can Grands Cinnamon Rolls
  • 1/4 cup frosting (from the can)
  • 1/4 cup sprinkles


Instructions

  1. Prepare the cinnamon rolls. Remove each cinnamon roll from the can and set the icing cup aside to use later.
  2. Shape the rolls. Unroll one cinnamon roll with the filling side facing up. Roll each side back toward the center and pinch the bottom to form a V shape; this will be the base of the heart.
  3. Repeat shaping. Repeat the heart-shaping process with all five cinnamon rolls.
  4. Place in air fryer. Transfer the shaped cinnamon rolls into a parchment paper-lined air fryer basket, ensuring they have space to cook evenly.
  5. Air fry the rolls. Set the air fryer temperature to 350°F (180°C) and cook for 5 minutes. Then, carefully flip the rolls with a cookie spatula and cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes until golden and cooked through.
  6. Cool and decorate. Allow the cinnamon rolls to cool for a few minutes before spreading the reserved frosting over them and sprinkling with your choice of sprinkles for a festive finish.

Notes

  • Use parchment paper in the air fryer basket to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
  • Flipping the rolls halfway ensures even cooking and a golden finish.
  • Ensure rolls are spaced adequately to allow air circulation for optimal crispiness.
  • The cooking time may vary slightly based on your air fryer model.
  • Add sprinkles immediately after frosting to help them stick well.
