My kids love air-fryer donut recipes! We made many flavors: 2-ingredient donuts, lemon donuts, or banana donut holes and even the surprising Sweet Potato Donuts. They are all way tastier than deep fried donuts. The air fryer puffs the dough even more than the oven, creating a fluffy, soft donut every time. To create these air fryer donut holes, I used the same base recipe as for the 2-ingredient donuts. Then, I experimented with air fryer baking times and temperatures because donut holes are smaller than donuts and air fry faster.

Ingredients and Substitutions
Plain Yogurt or vanilla-flavored yogurt – You can use any yogurt you like. For a sweeter dough, I recommend using vanilla-flavored yogurt. I always bake with dairy-free yogurt and tested the most popular vegan yogurts like coconut yogurt, cashew yogurt, and oat yogurt. I can guarantee that any yogurt provides good results in this recipe. Self-Rising Flour – This is made by mixing 1 cup of flour with 2 teaspoons of baking powder. I like to use store-bought mix, so it’s quick and easy to bake donuts without yeast.
