Notes

  • Preheat the air fryer for the best results.
  • Air fryer temperatures can vary slightly between brands, so use the provided cooking times as a guide. Check food for doneness and adjust cooking time as needed.
  • Cook pasta to al dente; you don't want to overcook it.
  • Don’t crowd the air fryer basket. The pasta should be in a single layer, so cook in batches if needed.
  • Use a light, neutral oil so it doesn’t overpower the flavor of the cinnamon and sugar.
  • Storage - keep in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
  • There are 7 WW Blue Plan SmartPoints in one serving of this.
