Notes
Check the pastry package to confirm that it is vegan.
Do not let the puff pastry become warm and sticky before air frying.
Leave a little space between the twists so hot air can circulate.
Cooking time may vary depending on the air fryer and thickness of the twists.
Cool completely before placing the twists in an airtight container.
