    Air Fryer Oreos are an indulgent treat that are super simple to make, and a great first time Air Fryer recipe or Air Fryer recipe to make with kids!

    Apparently even Dax Shepard and Kristen Bell love Air Fried Oreos, which somehow makes me feel a little better about this guilty indulgence. That whole "Celebrities are people, too" thing, or something like that.

    How to make deep fried oreos in the air fryer

    It's a super straightforward process:

    • Wrap the oreos with crescent dough
    • Air Fry the oreos
    • Optionally dust with powdered sugar
    • EAT!

    The hardest part is wrapping the Oreos with the crescent dough, but I've got pictures to help you every step of the way, with instructions describing each step in the caption of the photo.

    How to Air Fry Oreos

    Place the crescent dough covered Oreos seam side down in a single layer in the Air Fryer, giving at least 1" distance between each Oreo so the air has room to circulate and cook every part of them.

    can you fry batter in an air fryer?

    I don't recommend it, which is why instead of using a traditional batter like the fried oreos at the Fair, I use crescent dough.

    Most batters will splatter around the air fryer creating a mess, or will fall straight through the holes of the cooking surface.

    Cuisine: American

    Prep Time: 15 minutes
    Cook Time: 8 minutes
    Total Time: 23 minutes
    Servings: 8 fried oreos
    Author: Marianne

    Ingredients

    • 1 tube crescent rolls make sure to grab the size that makes 8 crescents
    • 8 cookies Oreos feel free to mix it up with some of the flavored Oreos
    • powdered sugar optional, for dusting and serving

    Equipment

    • Air Fryer

    Instructions

    • Preheat the Air Fryer to 350° for at least 5 minutes. ( See Note )
    • While the Air Fryer preheats, roll out the crescent rolls. Pinch together any seams to seal. Cut the crescent roll sheet into 8 equal sized squares.
    • Place one Oreo in the center of each square of dough. Gently fold the dough over the Oreo, pressing it together to seal. Reference the photos above in the post for step by step visuals.
    • Place the wrapped Oreos seams side down in the preheated Air Fryer basket. Air Fry for 4 minutes, filp, and Air Fry for another 4 minutes or until the Oreos are golden brown.
      Each Air Fryer is slightly different! Look for the golden brown color. If you open the basket and the Oreos are not golden brown, put them back in and cook for another 2 minutes and check again. Repeat until they are golden brown.

    Notes

    I tested this recipe both with preheating the air fryer and not preheating it.  The main difference is cooking time.  Without preheating the air fryer, the fried Oreos needed about 8 minutes to cook.  However, since this recipe cooks in batches, that means subsequent batches will cook in a preheated Air Fryer and will cook with a shorter time.
    For ease of having the cooking time the same for all batches, I recommend preheating the oven.
