Ingredients
  

  • 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury Crescent Rolls
  • 24 cocktail size Hillshire Farm Little Smokies
  • Parchment paper for air fryer
  • Sharp chef's knife
  • Optional: Mustard for dipping
  • Optional: Ketchup for dipping

Method
 

  1. Line your air fryer basket with parchment paper.
  2. Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into 8 triangles.
  3. Cut each large triangle into 3 smaller triangles.
  4. Tightly wrap each Little Smokey sausage in a small triangle of dough.
  5. Place 8-10 wrapped sausages in the air fryer basket, ensuring space.
  6. Air fry at 350°F (175°C) for 8 minutes until golden brown.

- Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket; cook in batches for optimal crispiness.
- Serve immediately for the best texture, or reheat briefly in the air fryer.
