Directions
- 1
Using a rolling pin or a glass, flatten each bread slice until thin and pliable.
- 2
Spread the sugar-free dulce de leche evenly over the surface of each flattened slice.
- 3
Carefully roll each slice into a tight log, similar to a mini Swiss roll. Secure the end with a toothpick if needed to hold its shape.
- 4
Place the rolls in the air fryer basket and cook at 200 °C (390 °F) for 5 minutes. Keep a close eye on them to prevent burning!

Remove from the air fryer and dust generously with ground cinnamon and skimmed milk powder.
- 6
Serve immediately while still warm and crispy!
💡 Chef's Tip
Try dipping your churros in plain Greek yogurt for extra creaminess. You can also swap the dulce de leche for light peanut butter for a fun flavour variation.
