Ingredients
  

1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough

1/4 cup packed brown sugar

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

1/4 cup powdered sugar

1 tablespoon milk

1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Instructions
 

Begin by preheating your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s hot and ready.

    In a small bowl, thoroughly combine the packed brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Set this flavorful mixture aside for later use.

      Carefully unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into individual triangular sections.

        With a pastry brush, apply a thin layer of the melted butter over each triangle, ensuring even coverage.

          Generously sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly across the buttered surface of the dough, allowing it to cling beautifully.

            Starting from the wider end of each triangle, roll it tightly towards the point to create a small, delightful roll. Pinch the edges firmly to secure the roll.

              Arrange the rolled bites in the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure they do not touch to allow for even cooking.

                Cook in the air fryer for 8-10 minutes, or until they are golden brown and puffed up, filling your kitchen with their delightful aroma.

                  While the bites are air frying, prepare the icing by whisking together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth and creamy.

                    Once the cinnamon roll bites have finished cooking, allow them to cool for a couple of minutes before generously drizzling the icing over the top.

                      Prep Time: 10 minutes | Total Time: 20 minutes | Servings: 4

                        - Presentation Tips: Serve the warm cinnamon roll bites on a decorative plate. Drizzle them with the creamy icing and sprinkle a touch of extra cinnamon or a light dusting of powdered sugar on top for an elegant and mouth-watering finish.
