Looking for vegan donuts but don’t want to deal with a pot full of hot oil? Then our air fryer Rosquitos are the perfect alternative. In just 9 minutes, you get soft, golden rings with a subtle hint of orange – no deep-frying smell in your kitchen. They’re sweetened with coconut blossom sugar for a gently caramel-like note. Whether rolled in cinnamon, topped with pistachio butter or finished with a bit of chocolate – you can easily make them your own. Let’s get started!
