I am all about Air Fryer Appetizers, and some of my favorite, quick, crowd-pleasing dishes are Air Fryer BBQ Little Smokies and these awesome Pigs in a Blanket.
How Does the Air Fryer Work?
Cooking with Air Fryers has made it easier to eat healthier without submerging your foods in oil. Air Fryers cook foods by using a heating element and a fan, and that circulating of heat and hot air is what helps cook the food and crisp it. Air Fryers can cook with heat as high as 400° Fahrenheit/200° Celcius. Some air fryers may even cook to higher temps. That makes things easy when you’re cooking for a crowd and need something fast and easy. To me, the best appetizers are the ones that take very little effort and are done in record time. These pigs in a blanket fit both of those qualifications! You only need two ingredients to make this blanket recipe and then you’re on your way! We definitely classify this as a beginner recipe.

How to Make Pigs in a Blanket in the Air Fryer
NOTE: This recipe was made using the Cosori 5.8 qt air fryer. If you are using a different air fryer, your cook time may need to be adjusted up or down depending on the wattage and power of the heating element.
What dipping sauces can I use for pigs in a blanket?
I love to use ketchup and mustard, but you can also use bbq sauce, cheese sauce, honey mustard sauce, ranch dressing, and more.
Can I cook frozen pigs in a blanket in the air fryer?
Absolutely! If you are cooking these pigs in a blanket from frozen, you will want to add a minute or two to the cooking time to ensure they are cooked completely. These are definitely some of my favorite appetizers to make on game day! MORE AIR FRYER APPETIZERS:
