Create Air Fryer Cinnamon Sugar Hearts for Valentine’s Day – easy, flavorful treats that are perfect for sharing and impressing your loved ones!

  • Total Time: 18 minutes
  • Yield: Approximately 12 hearts 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 sheet of puff pastry (thawed if frozen)
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 0.25 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • Optional: powdered sugar for dusting
  • Optional: cream cheese or vanilla glaze for dipping

Instructions

  1. Remove the puff pastry sheet from the package and allow it to thaw completely if frozen. If desired, lightly flour a surface and roll out the dough with a rolling pin to smooth it and ensure an even thickness.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar with the ground cinnamon. Stir well to distribute the cinnamon evenly throughout the sugar.
  3. Using your heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut out hearts from the puff pastry sheet. Gently lift each heart and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Re-roll remaining scraps of pastry to cut more hearts until the dough is used up.
  4. Using a pastry brush, lightly coat each heart with melted butter. Then generously sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture on top, ensuring every heart is nicely covered.
  5. Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C). Arrange the hearts in a single layer in the air fryer basket without overlapping. Cook for 6–8 minutes, or until the hearts are puffed up and golden brown. For crispier hearts, you can flip them halfway through cooking.
  6. Remove the cinnamon sugar hearts from the air fryer and let them cool slightly on a wire rack. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness. Serve warm with cream cheese dip or vanilla glaze for an elegant finish.
