Now, let's join Paula and see what's
0:27
cooking today.
0:30
Hey y'all, welcome to What's Cooking
0:32
with Paula Deen. And I tell you what,
0:35
all my cooking just lately is going on
0:37
in my air fryer. And if you're not My
0:40
air fryer is not in stores, so y'all, it
0:42
can only be found at Evine. Uh which
0:46
Evine is a shop at home network. You can
0:48
go to evine.com
0:51
uh
0:52
to find my air fryer. And it's great. I
0:56
would I would put it up against any of
0:59
them. But I always highly recommend that
1:01
you do your homework, check out check
1:04
them all out. And I'd put my money on
1:08
this one every time, hands down. But
1:11
anyway, so I'm using my air fryer a lot,
1:14
and especially now that it's getting
1:15
hot, I don't want to turn on the stove,
1:18
but my family still likes their baked
1:21
desserts. So, I'm going to do a little
1:24
cheating.
1:26
And uh I'm going to share with y'all
1:28
today how I'm cheating.
1:30
Now, I never buy stuff like this.
1:35
It's like it once in a blue moon is how
1:38
often I buy this.
1:40
Uh this is a cinnamon roll.
1:44
And they say it's made with real
1:45
cinnamon,
1:47
which is encouraging.
1:50
Uh
1:51
these cans scare me.
1:55
Cuz you know they can pop on you.
1:58
And almost make me wet my britches when
2:00
I'm not expecting that pop to pop.
2:04
One time it did that on Michael and he
2:07
jumped. It scared him. He
2:09
He He didn't want to admit that it
2:11
scared him, but I know it scared him.
2:13
All right.
2:15
So,
2:17
and [snorts] something else about this
2:18
type of thing uh
2:23
I think about a lot um
2:25
My grandmother Paul was ecstatic
2:29
when they came out with canned biscuits.
2:33
And I was out at her house one day
2:37
and I don't know, she may have been
2:39
making a blackberry cobbler cuz she
2:42
liked using these biscuits on top of it.
2:45
On top of the cobbler.
2:47
But I can see her right now, y'all. She
2:49
was standing up there
2:52
rapping that thing on her counter.
2:55
And she looked at me. She said, "I was
2:57
so damn glad when they invented these
3:01
canned biscuits."
3:04
So, my grandmother truly truly loved
3:06
them.
3:07
Uh and I'm so thankful that didn't
3:09
explode on me. So, in the cinnamon roll,
3:12
it comes with a little can
3:14
of icing. If it's not enough icing for
3:17
you, all it is is a little powdered
3:20
sugar and a little milk or even use
3:23
water.
3:24
Uh and it'll be fine.
3:27
So, what we're going to do is we're
3:29
going to separate our
3:31
cinnamon rolls and we're just going to
3:33
flatten them.
3:36
And then I'm just going to turn them
3:38
into sticks.
3:39
Like tight sticks.
3:45
You know, it's a cinnamon roll just in a
3:46
little different shape, y'all.
3:51
So, tight tight tight tight.
3:55
tight, tight.
3:58
All right.
4:01
And I'm just going to lay them in the
4:02
air fryer.
4:05
This is This is
4:07
trick of all tricks.
4:10
This is really cheating. This is
4:12
cheating big time, y'all. That's all
4:14
right.
4:15
Some days
4:18
we have to cheat
4:20
to make it through.
4:24
All right, come on. Tight.
4:26
Tight.
4:28
Tight. [clears throat]
4:30
Tight.
4:31
Tight.
4:34
Tight.
4:35
You don't have to tell your friends that
4:36
you do this, right?
4:37
[laughter]
4:38
No, you don't. You don't You don't have
4:40
to share this recipe with your friends.
4:45
Let them just wonder how you did it.
4:48
Uh but speaking of how you do it,
4:52
[snorts]
4:52
you know, your children would have a
4:53
good time
4:55
doing this with you.
4:59
So, here we go.
5:01
It actually says to flatten them.
5:05
Flatten them like that.
5:09
And then I guess you just start
5:11
twisting.
5:15
I think either way will work.
5:19
It just said to twist them. Make sure
5:21
you twist them tight.
5:25
And we're going to air fry these
5:33
in the air fryer for about 4 minutes.
5:36
And then we'll turn them over
5:39
and cook them for like another 3
5:41
minutes.
5:43
Uh since I've
5:45
developed airfryer.
5:50
Jack and I my Jack's my oldest grandson
5:53
and he and I
5:55
enjoy getting in here and cooking with
5:57
the airfryer.
5:58
He loves making desserts in this
6:01
airfryer using puff pastry
6:04
because it bakes up so beautifully.
6:08
And uh so he'll get in here and he'll
6:11
say, "Okay, Ginny. Now what can we put
6:15
in
6:16
our
6:18
baked good this time?" All right. So I'm
6:21
going to take that.
6:24
Now and I'm going to spray it
6:27
just like a kiss.
6:29
Just like a kiss. That'll help it brown.
6:31
So I'm going to cook it for 4 minutes.
6:36
Let me make sure it's plugged in.
6:40
That always helps. Electricity works
6:43
real good.
6:44
[snorts]
6:44
All right. So I'm going to turn this on
6:46
to about 4 minutes.
6:49
And let's see. It tells me to cook this
6:52
at
7:01
350.
7:04
So that would be 350.
7:06
And the kind of uh knobs I designed for
7:09
this airfryer, y'all, I love because as
7:13
as we start getting older, that old
7:15
Arthur.
7:16
He's one of the worst arthritis boys,
7:19
but those arthritis boys will come
7:21
a-visiting.
7:22
And like I said, I dislike Arthur
7:24
probably the most.
7:26
So
7:28
when arthritis visits you
7:30
visits you and shows up, the this is
7:34
this is so easy to move about.
7:38
You know, and this is easy to move
7:41
about.
7:42
So you know, we have to think about
7:44
things like that because
7:47
Father Time.
7:51
And if you like me, you've been blessed
7:53
to be here for a while, which is
7:55
wonderful.
7:57
So, like I said, we're going to cook
7:59
these for 4 minutes on 350. I'll turn
8:02
them over and give them another little
8:03
kiss of oil
8:05
and cook them for 3 more minutes. So,
8:07
I'm going to take a quick break and when
8:09
we come back
8:11
they'll be ready. And I've got uh sugar
8:14
and cinnamon that I'm going to toss on
8:16
them.
8:17
Look, that was a quick 4 minutes, wasn't
8:19
it?
8:20
That was so quick. Ooh. Ooh. Ooh.
8:25
So, I'm I'm just going to turn them with
8:27
my fingers.
8:28
And you know what? I Ouch.
8:32
This gets hot quick.
8:34
All right. So, there we go. I'm not even
8:37
going to spray it.
8:39
I'm not even going to kiss it with a
8:40
little drop of oil. So, I'm going to
8:42
take a quick break though when we come
8:44
back they'll be ready and I'll show you
8:47
how I'm going to finish them off. And
8:49
then I've got one more tip for you what
8:52
you can do
8:54
with these cinnamon rolls.
8:58
And it's good.

9:54
[music]
9:59
Okay, y'all. You probably noticed that
10:01
I've changed clothes. Well, I've got a
10:03
photoshoot at uh our stadium here, the
10:06
home of We're home of the Savannah
10:09
Bananas.
10:10
And I got a photoshoot, so I had to get
10:12
ready for that.
10:14
While our cinnamon sticks
10:18
were cooking and they have cooked.
10:22
And now we're just going to sprinkle
10:24
them
10:27
with the sugar
10:30
and [snorts] the cinnamon.
10:34
Yum. Just like that. And flip them over
10:39
and do the other side. So, it's just a
10:41
little different shape.
10:44
Just a little different shape.
10:50
Okay.
10:53
There we go. And then all we're going to
10:55
do is
10:59
drizzle them
11:01
with our cream.
11:03
Like I said, this comes in the
11:08
in the packet of your cinnamon rolls.
11:13
And it probably wouldn't hurt for me to
11:17
pop that in the microwave for just a
11:19
second
11:21
to soften it up.
11:23
But since I'm in a hurry,
11:26
I know that y'all are going to pick up
11:28
what I'm putting down.
11:31
That you will completely understand what
11:33
I'm doing.
11:39
Come on.
11:42
There you go.
11:48
Oh, so I said I wanted to share with
11:49
y'all something else that my niece Kory
11:53
turned me on to.
11:54
And let me tell you something, it is
11:57
evermore good, y'all.
12:00
Um
12:02
if you have a waffle iron, I feel like
12:04
everybody's got a waffle iron. And you
12:06
know, your waffle iron is actually in
12:07
four sections.
12:09
Well, heat up your your waffle iron.
12:14
And then put this on one section, this
12:16
on one section, this one on one section,
12:19
just like that.
12:21
Put your
12:22
um
12:23
top down on it. And you're going to have
12:26
one heck of a good cinnamon roll
12:30
waffle.
12:32
Waffle waffle.
12:36
So, [snorts] just that simple.
12:45
I don't care what shape it's rolled
12:47
into.
12:50
You can't beat a cinnamon roll.
12:54
Bye.
