How can I make air fryer pecan rolls?
Making air fryer pecan rolls is indeed a great idea for the holidays. They are easy to make, can be cooked in advance and heated up just before serving.
The only ingredients needed are ground pecans, butter, sugar, eggs, flour, and baking powder. The dough is mixed with butter, sugar, and eggs. It is then rolled out thinly on a floured surface to get them ready for the baking process. The dough is cut into shapes of the desired size after which they are cooked at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 12 minutes or until golden brown in color.

Can you please provide the size of the pan? “Small” doesn’t tell me much, and I’m a real rookie at the air fryer. Also, assume you mean the refrigerated “canned” Pillsbury cinnamon rolls? There are the regular size, and then there are the larger size rolld. Which size do you mean?
I very much appreciate you responding to my questions. This will be my first attempt at “baking!” I do not currently have a pan that will fit into my air fryer . . . do you think it would work for me to place them directly into the air fryer, on a parchment paper lining? Or, can I just do these in the oven? My sister’s FAV dessert is a pecan roll, and I’d like to give her some homemade as part of her XMAS gift.
Hi Tracy, the size of the pan is approximately 10″ in diameter. I used canned Pillsbury Cinnamon rolls 17.5 oz. Regards
