Ingredients
  

For the Rolls
  • 4 tortillas Flour Tortillas Provide the base structure; avoid corn tortillas as they crack easily when rolled.
  • 4 tablespoons Unsalted Butter Adds richness and aids in crisping; use melted for easy application.
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar Sweetens the rolls; adjust according to taste preference.
  • 2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon Essential for flavoring; use fresh cinnamon for the best taste.

Equipment

  • Air fryer
  • Microwave-safe bowl
  • Small bowl
  • Baking sheet

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Cinnamon Sugar Mixture: In a small bowl, combine granulated sugar and ground cinnamon until well blended, resembling beach sand.
  2. Assemble the Tortilla Rolls: Melt unsalted butter in a microwave-safe bowl and brush a thin layer over each tortilla. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly across the buttered surface.
  3. Roll and Slice the Tortillas: Roll each tortilla tightly into a log shape and slice into 1-inch pieces to create mini cinnamon scrolls.
  4. Air Fry the Rolls: Place the sliced rolls in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Preheat to 350°F and cook for 5-7 minutes.
  5. Cool and Serve: Let the rolls cool slightly after removing from the air fryer for enhanced flavor and texture.

Notes

These rolls taste best when served warm. Reheat any leftovers in the air fryer for crispy texture instead of using the microwave, which can make them chewy.
