Ingredients
Method
- Press the crescent roll dough into a flat sheet, sealing the seams together. Divide the dough into 24 equal-sized squares, each large enough to fold the hot dogs about 1 inches on each side.
- Place a small amount of the finely chopped bacon in the middle of each dough square, just enough to form a bacon layer under the hot dog.
- Set a mini hot dog diagonally on top of the bacon crumbles.
- Fold the dough around the hot dog like an envelope, and lightly pinch the edges to seal the dough.
- Brush the outside of the wrapped pigs in a blanket with melted butter.
- Immediately sprinkle additional crispy bacon crumbles on top and lightly press them onto the dough to ensure they stick.
- Arrange in a greased Air Fryer basket in a single layer, leaving room between them.
- Air fry for 8-12 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and the bacon is crispy.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, ensure the bacon crumbles are very dry before sprinkling. Moisture can prevent them from adhering properly.
- Don't overcrowd the Air Fryer basket. Work in batches to allow for even airflow and browning, which is key for crispy bacon pigs.
- If the dough browns too quickly, reduce the temperature slightly and increase the cooking time to ensure the hot dogs are heated through. Nutrition information is an estimate, calculated automatically. Values vary with brands, substitutions and portion sizes.
