Ingredients
  

For the Donuts
  • 2 cups Self-Raising Flour Can substitute with all-purpose flour mixed with baking powder.
  • 1 cup Sweetened Greek Yogurt Thicker variety yields better dough.
For the Coating
  • 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar Adjust based on preference.
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon For flavor.
For Optional Drizzle
  • 1/2 cup Melted Chocolate Choose dark or milk chocolate.

Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine self-raising flour with sweetened Greek yogurt. Stir until a soft dough forms, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for 1-2 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  3. Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (180°C). Lightly oil the basket to prevent sticking.
  4. Brush donut bites lightly with melted butter and place in the air fryer basket. Air fry for about 5 minutes, turning halfway through.
  5. Remove donuts from air fryer, roll in melted butter, then toss in a mixture of sugar and cinnamon.
  6. Serve warm on a platter with optional melted chocolate for dipping.
