Air fryer apple crescent rolls are a delicious treat! Apples are combined with cinnamon and sugar and then wrapped in crescent rolls before cooking in the air fryer.
I made these the other day, and my daughter and I devoured them within 20 minutes. Oops. They were SO good though. A definite win of a recipe.
Picture thinly sliced apple with cinnamon and sugar. Popped inside a crescent roll. And cooked in the air fryer.
An easy dessert that is ready in less than 15 minutes. And SO good.
These air fried apple pie crescent rolls would be perfect for any fall gathering, an easy air fryer Thanksgiving dessert, or really any time of year! Delicious and easy.

How to make air fryer apple crescent rolls
Add cinnamon and sugar to a small bowl.
Stir to combine.
Slice an apple into thin slices.
Roll out crescent roll sheet and separate into triangles. Add a couple of apple slices to the ends of the crescent rolls.
Add some of the cinnamon sugar mixture to the top of the apples.
Carefully roll up.
Either brush or spray a little oil to prevent sticking or use air fryer parchment paper.
Sprinkle a little cinnamon sugar on the top.
Air fry for 5-7 minutes at 330 degrees F.
Remove, let slightly cool, then top as desired! I drizzled a little caramel sauce and topped with whipped topping here.
Yum. So good.
How to customize
You could easily add different spices to the cinnamon-sugar mix! Instead, you could swap out the cinnamon for pumpkin pie spice or include some nutmeg or allspice for different fall flavors.
You could also swap out the white sugar for brown sugar.
What to serve with the apple pie crescent rolls
I love to serve these air fried apple pie crescent rolls with a drizzle of caramel sauce and a little dollop of whipped topping. You could also serve with some ice cream or cinnamon whipped cream.
