Add the milk and mix until combined. Transfer to a floured surface and knead for 5 minutes or until the dough is soft and elastic.

Spray your air fryer basket with cooking spray and transfer the dough balls to the air fryer basket. Set on 350 degrees F for 20 minutes (no need to preheat). Halfway through air frying, shake the basket so the donut holes "fry" evenly.
