There's nothing better than a warm sticky bun on a chilly morning, or any morning for that matter. Hot out of the air fryer, dripping with buttery-honey and lots of coconut, I'm in heaven! —Diane Nemitz, Ludington, Michigan

Ingredients

1 loaf (1 pound) frozen bread dough, thawed
4 ounces (1/2 cup) cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut
3 tablespoons thawed orange juice concentrate
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup honey
Optional: Toasted sweetened shredded coconut and grated orange zest

Directions

Grease two 8-in. round baking pans that fit in air fryer. Cut thawed bread dough in half; roll each half into a 10x8-in. rectangle. Combine cream cheese, coconut and orange juice concentrate; spread mixture on dough. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with long side. Cut each roll crosswise into eight slices; place in prepared pans. Cover; let rise until almost doubled, about 1 hour.
Preheat air fryer to 325°. In a microwave, melt butter and honey. Spoon 1 tablespoon butter-honey mixture over each bun. In batches, place pans in air fryer; cook until tops are golden brown, about 20 minutes. Immediately invert onto a serving plate. If desired, top with toasted coconut and orange zest.
