These bright and colorful monster donuts are the perfect Halloween treat! Use a package of biscuit dough and cook them up in your air fryer in just a few minutes. This is an easy snack to make, even when you’re short on time.
EEK! These monster donuts are as cute as they are creepy! If you are looking for an easy treat to make for Halloween (party food, breakfast, snack, etc), this one is a great choice! We used a package of biscuit dough to make these easy air fryer donuts. A few years ago we posted these Cinnamon Sugar Air Fryer Donuts and since then, we have made biscuit dough donuts many, many times. They require zero effort aside from tossing some pre-packaged dough into an air fryer!

Ingredients
- 1 can jumbo flaky biscuit dough

Instructions

- Spray the top of each biscuit lightly with cooking spray.
- Cook the biscuits in the air fryer for 4-6 minutes or until the biscuits have browned.
- Remove from air fryer and transfer to a cooling rack.
- Once the biscuit donuts have cooled, smother them with frosting.
- Add sprinkles and enjoy!
So fun and easy right?
These donuts would be a great idea for a quick after school snack. You could even bake up the dough before the kids get home and let them frost and sprinkle the donuts before they eat them!
