Air Fryer Frozen Pigs in a Blanket

The air fryer is the perfect way to cook some frozen pigs in a blanket quickly. They are effortless to cook and taste absolutely delicious.

Pigs in a blanket are a straightforward dish consisting of a small sausage wrapped in either pastry or bacon. For this recipe, we use the variety that is wrapped in pastry. We are also using pre-prepared frozen pigs in a blanket, but you can easily make them at home.

The outcome of this recipe heavily relies on the quality of the product from the supermarket. So, I highly recommend that you get your favorite brand for the best result.

When you are finished cooking, you should have a delicious sausage wrapped in a flaky pastry. These sausages are best served as a side dish, appetizer, snack, or as part of a party platter.

A single batch of these sausages will feed roughly four people. However, I assume you are making some extra side dishes to go alongside this recipe. You can easily double or triple the recipe if you need to make more, but you may need to cook in batches as I recommend not overloading the air fryer.

You can cook the hot dogs in the air fryer without any pastry. It is a great way to cook a few hot dogs at once. They turn out absolutely delicious, so I highly recommend giving it a try.

Serving Ideas for Pigs in a Blanket

There is a wide range of sauces that will match perfectly with a pig in a blanket. For example, my personal favorites include tomato sauce, BBQ sauce, mayonnaise, tomato relish, cheese sauce, or even honey mustard. There are lots to pick from, and they all work well as a dipping sauce.

As I mentioned earlier, many side dishes will go perfectly with these air-fried pigs in a blanket. If you have multiple air fryers, you can try cooking potato fries, Tater Tots, spring rolls, mozzarella sticks, or even garlic bread.

Pigs in a blanket are excellent finger food, so if you are catering for a party, they are perfect. They certainly go great alongside pizza scrolls, garlic bread, or puff pastry cheese twists. Some of these can be cooked in either an air fryer or traditional oven.

My other recommendation is to give frozen chicken nuggets a try in the air fryer. For me, they turn out to be deliciously crispy on the outside and hot on the inside. The nuggets go great with a few dipping sauces.
