You’ll need the following ingredients to make fried Oreos in the air fryer.

Pillsbury Crescent Rolls: Grab two cans to make eight fried Oreos.
Oreo cookies: I used original Oreos, but if you want to use their specialty flavors like mint or Golden Oreos, go for it.
Melted butter: I use butter mixed with sugar to add sweetness to the crescent roll dough and make the air fryer Oreos easy to remove from the basket.
Sugar
Powdered sugar: I used this for garnish, but you could leave it off.

Can you Reheat Them in the Air Fryer?

Yes! Heat your air fryer to 325°F and pop the fried Oreos in for a few minutes. This will soften them up and make the dough nice and soft again.

Recipe Tips and Tricks

Brush the dough with the butter/sugar mixture right before you are about to put them into the air fryer after it’s done preheating. This way, the butter/sugar will be fresh when it goes in and won’t soak into the dough. They’ll also be much easier to remove from the basket.
Work in batches if your air fryer is small. Don’t overcrowd the basket.
If your air fryer doesn’t have the exact temperature for this recipe, use the closest temperature rounding down. Different brands have different temperature settings.
Wait a few minutes after you’ve taken them out of the air fryer before you eat them. They will be HOT. Give them about 5 to 10 minutes to cool to the perfect temperature.

Can I Make this Recipe without an Air Fryer?

Yes, you can make it in the oven. You may need to adjust the baking time a little. I recommend keeping an eye on the fried Oreos and bake until they are a nice golden brown.
