To be honest, I didn’t expect much the first time I tried this. I thought, Can you really air-fry biscuits and make them taste good? Well, spoiler alert: You can. And not just good—amazing.

Why You’ll Love This Canned Air Fryer Biscuits Recipe?

  • Ready in 8 Minutes: No preheating an oven. No waiting. Just instant biscuit gratification.

Ingredient Notes:

It’s a two-ingredient recipe, folks. But even simple recipes deserve a little love, right?

  • Canned Biscuits: Jumbo biscuits work best for this because they puff up beautifully. If you want buttery or flaky, go for it—choose what makes your heart happy.
  • Cooking Spray: Don’t skip this! It’s the secret to ensuring the biscuits don’t stick and come out evenly browned.

Pro Tip: Want to add a little extra flair? Brush the biscuits with melted butter after cooking, and sprinkle on some garlic powder or cinnamon sugar. Instant upgrade!

How To Make Canned Air Fryer Biscuits?

I almost feel guilty calling this a “recipe” because it’s that simple. But hey, sometimes the easiest things bring the most joy.

  1. Get Your Air Fryer Ready:
    Spray the basket with a little cooking spray. This step takes five seconds but saves you from any sticky disasters.
  2. Arrange the Biscuits:
    Open the can (does anyone else get a tiny thrill when it pops?) and place the biscuits in a single layer. Don’t overcrowd them—give them room to breathe and rise.
  3. Cook Them to Perfection:
    Set the air fryer to 330°F and cook for 6 minutes. Flip the biscuits over (I use tongs because, let’s be real, it’s easier), then cook for another 2 minutes. They’ll come out golden and glorious, like they were kissed by the biscuit gods.
  4. Serve and Enjoy:
    That’s it. No cooling racks, no waiting. Just grab one (or two) while they’re still warm and enjoy. They’re best fresh, but honestly, they’re great anytime.

  • Reheat: Straight from the fridge or freezer, they go back into the air fryer at 330°F for 2–3 minutes.

Variations and Substitutions:

Feeling adventurous? Here are a few ways to switch things up:

  • Cheesy Garlic Biscuits: Brush with garlic butter and sprinkle with shredded Parmesan after cooking.
  • Sweet Biscuits: Add a drizzle of honey or a dusting of powdered sugar for a dessert vibe.
  • Herb-Infused: Mix dried herbs like thyme or rosemary into melted butter and brush over the biscuits.
  • Gluten-Free: Use gluten-free canned biscuits—same method, just a little extra care when flipping.

What to Serve with Canned Air Fryer Biscuits?

These biscuits are like the ultimate sidekick. Here’s what they go best with:

  • Breakfast Feast: Pair with eggs, bacon, and a bit of jam for a morning win.
  • Comfort Soup: Dunk them in chicken noodle soup, tomato bisque, or chili. It’s heavenly.
  • Hearty Dinners: Serve alongside roasted chicken, BBQ ribs, or even a pasta dish.
  • Snack Attack: Split them open, add some butter or Nutella, and call it a day.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Can I use smaller biscuits?

Absolutely! Just reduce the cooking time a bit since they’ll cook faster.

Do I have to flip them?

Yes! Flipping ensures both sides cook evenly, so don’t skip this step.

Can I stack them in the air fryer?

Nope. Stacking will block the airflow and give you unevenly cooked biscuits. Always go for a single layer.

These Canned Air Fryer Biscuits might just be the easiest thing you’ll ever make, but they deliver big on flavor and texture. They’re the perfect mix of crispy, fluffy, and buttery goodness—all without breaking a sweat.

So, what’s your favorite way to enjoy them? Slathered in jam? Dipped in gravy? Let me know—I’d love to hear your biscuit tales!
