This is such a cool and creative idea! Love it!
Has anyone tried using an air fryer to make these?
I was wondering the same thing!! I wonder what temp and how long you would air fry then???
When you take these out of the frying oil, you could also dip them in a sugar/cinnamon mixture as well, just a little extra flavor (and yes, extra calories, but hey, if you’re making these, calories are probably not the most important issue). This looks like an excellent idea, will be trying soon, thanks.
