Can someone help me change my Cloudflare nameservers?
Inside my cloudflare dashboard, I'm being told to change my existing cloudflare nameservers to a different set of cloudflare nameservers, but I've tried that by adding an NS record with the nameservers cloudflare is asking me to add and it's giving me an error. I don't know what to do at this point.

Note, I purchased the domain through Cloudflare and I want to use my hosting provider (Hostinger) to host the website under that domain name.
can only use the cf name servers you're assigned, if you want different ones you can purchase a biz plan or transfer your domain

What I don't understand is, why aren't the nameservers already configured? I didn't have this issue with the first domain I purchased through Cloudflare.
Biz plan does not let you use custom nameservers if you're using CF Registrar, only thing Business plan lets you do is to use Vanity Cloudflare ones (So they appear as ns1.yourdomain.com instead of hank.ns.cloudflare.com, etc), but still only ever Cloudflare DNS
If it's asking you to change them, I'd double check you're in the same account as purchased the domain (if you're using iCloud can get more messy, have to login via iCloud). Otherwise registrar ticket
