Air fryers are versatile kitchen appliances that can be used to cook a variety of foods, including mini croissants filled with Nutella and jam. Here’s a simple recipe for making Air Fryer Mini Croissants with Nutella and Jam:
Ingredients:
- Mini croissants (store-bought or homemade)
- Nutella (chocolate hazelnut spread)
- Jam or preserves of your choice (strawberry, raspberry, etc.)
Instructions:
- Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes.
- While the air fryer is preheating, gently unroll the mini croissants if they’re pre-packaged and separate them into individual triangles.
- Place a small amount of Nutella and a dollop of jam on the wider end of each croissant triangle. You can adjust the amount of filling based on your preference, but be careful not to overfill to prevent leakage during cooking.
- Carefully roll up each croissant triangle, starting from the wider end where the filling is placed. Roll them into crescent shapes, similar to how you would normally shape croissants.
- Place the filled and shaped croissants in the preheated air fryer basket, making sure to leave some space between them to allow for proper air circulation.
- Cook the croissants in the air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-8 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside. Cooking times may vary depending on the size and brand of your air fryer, so keep an eye on them to avoid overcooking.
- Once the croissants are cooked to your liking, carefully remove them from the air fryer using tongs or a spatula. Be cautious, as the filling may be hot.
- Allow the croissants to cool slightly before serving, as the filling can be very hot. Serve the Air Fryer Mini Croissants with Nutella and Jam as a delicious snack or dessert.
Optional: You can also dust the cooked croissants with a sprinkle of powdered sugar for added sweetness and presentation.
Please note that cooking times and temperatures may vary depending on your specific air fryer model, so it’s a good idea to monitor the croissants closely as they cook to achieve the desired level of crispiness. Enjoy your tasty Air Fryer Mini Croissants with Nutella and Jam!
