Okay, so I saw this thing online about making biscuits in an air fryer, and I was like, “No way, that can’t be real.” But I’m always up for trying new kitchen hacks, so I gave it a shot. Here’s how it went down:
Gathering My Stuff
First, I grabbed a can of those refrigerated biscuits – you know, the kind that pop open when you whack them on the counter? Super satisfying. I also made sure my air fryer basket was clean. Nothing worse than old, burnt food bits messing with your new experiment.
Getting Started
- I preheated my air fryer to 350°F. The instructions I found online said to do that, so I did.
- While that was warming up, I popped open the biscuit can (always fun!) and separated the biscuits.
- I lightly sprayed the air fryer basket with some cooking spray. Just a little, to prevent sticking.
The Baking Part
I laid out the biscuits in the air fryer basket, making sure they weren’t touching. They need room to puff up, you know? Then, I slid the basket into the air fryer.
I set the timer for about 8 minutes, the article said. It’s better to check them, rather than over cook and make them dry.
After 8 minutes, I peeked at * were a little on the soft side, so I flipped them over and put them on for an extra 4 minutes.
The Results!
I pulled out the basket, and wow! They actually looked like real biscuits! Golden brown, fluffy, the works. I let them cool for a couple of minutes (because burning your mouth on a hot biscuit is NOT fun).
And… drumroll… they were delicious! Seriously, I was shocked. They were soft and fluffy on the inside, with a slightly crispy crust. Way better than I expected.
So, there you have it. You CAN make biscuits in an air fryer. Who knew? It’s definitely a quicker way to get your biscuit fix, and I’m all about that. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go make some more with some butter and jam!
