Delicious Air Fryer Chocolate Croissants

These air fryer chocolate croissants are made with store-bought puff pastry filled with rich chocolate. The cooking process is simple, taking about 15 minutes, and yields 8 croissants, making it a great option for serving family or guests.

Ingredients

1 package of puff pastry (2 sheets, thawed)
1 cup chocolate hazelnut spread or dark chocolate pieces
1 egg (for egg wash)
Flour (for dusting)
Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)

Instructions

Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare the Pastry: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheets and cut each sheet into 4 triangles.
Fill: Place a tablespoon of chocolate spread or a few pieces of chocolate towards the base of each triangle.

Roll: Starting from the base, roll the triangle towards the tip, enclosing the chocolate inside. Pinch the edges to seal.
Egg Wash: Beat the egg and brush it over the tops of the rolled croissants for a golden finish.
Air Fry: Place the croissants in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they are not touching. Cook for 10-12 minutes until golden brown and puffed up.
