Description

Delightful cinnamon sugar twists served warm with a creamy, tangy cream cheese dip, perfect for brunch or a snack.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 thawed frozen dinner roll dough balls
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 4 ounces cream cheese
  • 23 tablespoons canola oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F.
  2. Shape the dough by cutting each roll in half and rolling each half into a 6-inch-long snake.
  3. Twist the dough by wrapping one snake around the other.
  4. Brush each twist lightly with canola oil.
  5. Let the twisted dough sit for 15 minutes to puff slightly.
  6. Air fry the twists at 375°F for about 7 minutes, flip, and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Make the dip by whisking cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth.
  8. Serve the warm twists immediately with the cream cheese dip on the side.

Notes

For a lighter option, use coconut oil instead of canola oil. Customize the cinnamon sugar mix with nutmeg or cardamom for added flavor.
