Homemade taco hot pockets with Beef, cheese and biscuits.


Its taco Tuesday! But my kids are complaining about eating the same old tacos again!

I already thawed and started browning the meat when I found out that everyone was tired of tacos. (not me.)

I found a can of biscuits in the fridge and taco pockets were made and loved by all.

Fold the biscuit in half, pinching the open edges together.


Use a fork to crimp the edges that was just pinched together. Be gentle not to make holes in the biscuit.


Gently place the folded biscuit into air fryer and cook for 3-5 minutes on 350°f.


Check frequently and shake basket to prevent sticking after 2 minutes of cooking. Should come out golden brown, remember that the inside is already cooked and we only need to cook the biscuit shell.
