Start by unwrapping the Hostess Twinkies and placing them in the air fryer basket. Make sure they are spaced out evenly for uniform cooking. 4 Hostess Twinkies
Set your air fryer to 350°F and cook the Twinkies for 2-3 minutes. This initial cooking helps start the browning process.
Open the air fryer basket and carefully flip the Twinkies over. Continue to air fry for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until they are golden brown and toasty.
Once the Twinkies are cooked, remove them from the air fryer. Dust them with powdered sugar, drizzle with chocolate syrup or pipe with whipped cream, and top with fresh berries if desired. Serve immediately for the best experience. 1 Tablespoon Powdered Sugar, Chocolate Syrup or Whipped Cream, Fresh Berries
