3-Ingredient Air Fryer Pigs in a Blanket
I’ve made a lot of pigs in a blanket in my day, but these air fryer ones are by far the easiest and quickest! All you need are three ingredients (plus some optional toppings if you’re in the mood) for an amazing appetizer that comes together in about 20 minutes. With hot honey mustard dip, these are always the first snack to go at every party I bring them to!

Instructions
Pigs in a blanket
- Step 1
First, use paper towels or a clean linen to pat the little smokies dry. You want to remove as much moisture as possible, or the pigs will be soggy. Set aside.
- Step 2
Unroll the crescent roll dough on a clean surface. Separate the dough along the perforated lines, so you have 8 individual dough triangles. Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut each dough triangle lengthwise into 3 narrow strips of dough. You should 24 dough strips total.
- Step 3
Place a sausage at the wide end of one of the dough strips. Roll the sausage towards the pointed end, sealing the dough well so it doesn't pop open in the air fryer. Repeat this process with the remaining sausages and dough until you have 24 pigs in a blanket.
- Step 4
Next, whisk the egg with 1 Tablespoon of water in a small bowl. Use a pastry brush to brush the top of the dough with egg wash. (Try to avoid the bottoms, or they'll stick to the air fryer basket.) Sprinkle with sesame seeds or everything bagel seasoning, if using.
- Step 5
Grease the basket of an air fryer with cooking spray or neutral oil. Place the pigs in a blanket in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving a little space between each. (You may need to work in batches if your air fryer is small.)
- Step 6
Air fry the pigs in a blanket at 350°F (177°C) for 4-5 minutes, flipping them 180° halfway through, until the pastry is golden-brown. Serve them immediately with hot honey mustard, whole grain mustard, and/or ketchup. Enjoy!
Hot Honey mustard
- Step 7
In a small bowl, add the hot honey, Dijon mustard, mayonnaise, vinegar, and hot sauce. Whisk until smooth. Taste and add more hot honey, mustard, or hot sauce if needed.
