Ingredients

1-1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup Rice Krispies, coarsely crushed
2 tablespoons plus 1/2 cup sugar, divided
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup butter-flavored shortening
1/2 cup 2% milk
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup butter, melted

Directions

In a large bowl, combine flour, cereal, 2 tablespoons sugar, baking powder and salt; cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in milk just until moistened. Shape into 1-in. balls.

Preheat air fryer to 400°. In a shallow bowl, combine remaining 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon. Dip balls in butter, then roll in cinnamon sugar.
In batches, arrange in a single layer on greased tray in air-fryer basket. Cook until browned and a toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean, 8-12 minutes.
