Ingredients
  

  • 1 sheet frozen puff pastry
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • caramel and/or chocolate dipping sauce optional

Equipment

  • Air Fryer
  • Oven
  • baking sheet
  • parchment paper
  • Medium bowl

Method
 

  1. Let the puff pastry set at room temperature for 10-15 minutes to soften it slightly.
  2. Lay the puff pastry flat and cut into 144 squares (cut 12 strips one way and 12 strips the other).
  3. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the sugar and ground cinnamon. Set aside.
  4. To cook in the AIR FRYER: Spread some of the puff pastry squares on the rack of the air fryer without overlapping. Air fry for 4 minutes on 375°F, then shake the basket. Air fry for another 1-2 minutes or until golden brown.
  5. To bake in the OVEN: Spread the puff pastry squares on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 400°F for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
  6. Remove the puff pastry squares and place them in the bowl of cinnamon-sugar. Carefully stir until coated.
