Step-by-Step Instructions for Air Fryer Donut Bites
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of self-raising flour with 5 oz of sweetened Greek yogurt and stir until a soft, sticky dough forms.
  2. Knead the dough gently for about 1 minute until it becomes smooth and cohesive.
  3. Divide the smooth dough into two portions and roll each into logs about 1 inch thick.
  4. Cut the logs into small pieces weighing 8-12g each, then roll each piece into a ball.
  5. Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (180°C) for about 5 minutes.
  6. Lightly brush the air fryer basket with oil and arrange the donut bites, ensuring space between them.
  7. Air fry the donut balls at 350°F (180°C) for approximately 5 minutes.
  8. Remove from the air fryer and toss in melted butter, then roll in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  9. Serve warm and enjoy, optionally drizzled with melted chocolate.
