Craving a quick and delightful treat? These air fryer Oreos are a fun twist on the classic cookie. Wrapped in crescent roll dough and lightly dusted with powdered sugar, they offer a warm, gooey center with a crispy outer layer. Perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth in just a few minutes.
Most of the ingredients for this recipe are common household items. However, you might need to pick up a can of refrigerated crescent roll dough if you don't already have it. This dough can usually be found in the refrigerated section of your supermarket, near the biscuits and puff pastry. Make sure to also have some powdered sugar on hand for dusting.
Ingredients for Air Fryer Oreos Recipe
Refrigerated crescent roll dough: This is a pre-made dough that comes in a can, making it convenient and easy to use for wrapping the Oreos.
Oreos: Classic chocolate sandwich cookies with a creamy filling, providing the perfect base for this recipe.
Powdered sugar: Also known as confectioners' sugar, this fine sugar is used for dusting the finished Oreos to add a touch of sweetness and a decorative finish.
Technique Tip for This Recipe
To ensure the crescent roll dough wraps evenly around the oreos, slightly flatten each piece of dough before wrapping. This will help create a more uniform and golden-brown finish when air frying.

How To Store / Freeze This Treat
Allow the Air Fryer Oreos to cool completely before storing. This helps prevent condensation, which can make them soggy.
Place the cooled Oreos in an airtight container. If you need to stack them, separate the layers with parchment paper to avoid sticking.
Store the container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, consider refrigeration.
To freeze, wrap each Oreo individually in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. This helps maintain their shape and texture.
Place the wrapped Oreos in a freezer-safe bag or container. Label with the date to keep track of freshness.
Freeze for up to 1 month. When ready to enjoy, thaw at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
For a quick refresh, reheat the thawed Oreos in the air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for 1-2 minutes. This will help restore their crispy exterior.
How To Reheat Leftovers
Preheat your air fryer to 300°F (150°C). Place the leftover Air Fryer Oreos in the basket, ensuring they are not touching. Heat for 2-3 minutes until they are warm and slightly crispy.
Use an oven preheated to 350°F (175°C). Arrange the Oreos on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for about 5 minutes or until they are heated through and the dough is crispy.
For a quick fix, use a microwave. Place the Oreos on a microwave-safe plate and cover them with a damp paper towel. Heat on medium power for 20-30 seconds. Note that this method may not retain the crispiness as well as the air fryer or oven.
If you have a toaster oven, preheat it to 350°F (175°C). Place the Oreos on the toaster oven tray and heat for 3-4 minutes until they are warm and the dough is crispy.
For a stovetop method, use a non-stick skillet. Heat the skillet over medium heat and place the Oreos in the pan. Cover with a lid and heat for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are warmed through and slightly crispy.
