Tasty Air Fryer Nutella Bites
You are going to love this recipe because you only need 5 ingredients, and you mostly likely already have most of them! For this recipe, you will need:
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 container large flaky layer biscuits (16.3 oz, 8 count)
- ½ cup Nutella
- Powdered sugar, if desired
How to Prepare Nutella Bites for the Air Fryer
This recipe is so fast and easy. To begin, prepare the egg wash. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg with the water.
Next, lightly flour your surface. Then, open the container of biscuits and roll each biscuit to about 5 inches diameter circle. Once the biscuit is rolled out, brush it with the egg wash- be sure to brush all the way to the edges. Next, cut each of the circles into 4 equal pieces. Your biscuits should now be triangular shaped.
To finish, place 1/2 teaspoon of Nutella in the middle of each of the biscuit pieces. Fold the biscuit in half over the Nutella and firmly pinch shut.
Nutella Bites in the Air Fryer
Now that you have prepared these tasty and fun Nutella bites for the air fryer, its time to actually bake them in the air fryer. Place the biscuits in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Then cook at 300°F/149°C for 7-8 minutes until the dough is golden brown. Be sure to flip the biscuits at the halfway point.
Remove the bites from the air fryer. These are best enjoyed if they are served immediately. Top the Nutella bites with powdered sugar if desired.
Tips for the Best Air Fryer Nutella Bites
This recipe is best served when the bites are fresh out of the air fryer. Otherwise, they will become hard like biscuits if you wait to long.
If you are having a hard time sticking the dough to itself. Try adding a little more of the egg wash. If that doesn’t work, you may want to add a little less Nutella.
It’s also likely that the dough will puff up while its cooking in the air fryer. This isn’t a cause for alarm; it’ll still taste really good. But if you want the dough to stick together, you may need to use less Nutella and make sure that you add the egg wash all the way to the outside.
Experiment with different toppings for these Nutella bites! Add some peanut butter for your peanut butter and chocolate lovers. You might also enjoy this glaze from our famous air fryer donuts recipe on top of the bites. Have fun with your toppings! Let us know what you used as a topping for your Nutella bites.
