Leftover biscuits are still delicious biscuits! Once you air fry biscuits, all you have to do is let them cool down. You can then store these easy biscuits in an airtight container or sealable bag and keep them at room temperature for the next day.

FAQs
You can use a cookie cutter, or you can use the opening of a glass as well. These are the easiest ways to get rounded biscuits every time.
Adding a little flour mixture to the clean countertop is helpful when kneading the dough. This will prevent the dough from sticking and make the dough easy to lift and put into the air fryer basket.
Adding a little nonstick cooking spray, or lining the basket with parchment paper will prevent sticking. Typically, when air frying, the basket is coated with a nonstick coating, but it's better to be safe than sorry.
