Step 1
Shape dough: Separate 12 oz refrigerated biscuit dough into pre-cut biscuit pieces. Cut each biscuit in half. (A typical can makes 10 regular sized biscuits, which will become 20 donut holes). Use your hands to pinch and roll the dough into a smooth ball.
Step 2
Bake in air fryer (see note 4): If using basket-style air fryer: Arrange balls in an air fryer basket, with enough space for each to double in size. (Bake in batches if needed). Without pre-heating, air fry at 325℉ (165℃) until golden-brown, about 8 minutes. (Cook times vary by brand, watch carefully so they don't burn). If using a toaster-oven air fryer: Line tray with parchment paper. Arrange balls with enough space for each to double in size. (Bake in batches if needed). Without pre-heating, air fry on the lowest rack at 325℉ (165℃) until golden-brown on top, about 4 minutes. Flip balls and air fry until golden-brown all over, about another 4 minutes. (Cook times vary by brand, watch carefully so they don't burn).
Step 3
Mix cinnamon sugar: In a shallow bowl, whisk together 6 tablespoons granulated sugar and 1¼ teaspoons ground cinnamon.
Step 4
Coat: Brush 3 tablespoons melted butter all over the hot donut holes. Then, toss in cinnamon sugar until evenly coated. Serve hot.
Step 5
Optional—Fill donuts: For jelly filled donuts, add Strawberry or Raspberry Jam to a piping bag fitted with a plain piping tip. After donut holes are tossed in cinnamon sugar, insert piping tip into the donut and gently squeeze jam inside.
