Notes

  • If your air fryer doesn't have a preheating option, you can set the temperature to 360°F (182°C) and then let it cook without food for 3-4 minutes.
  • Don't skip flipping the hot dogs halfway through, as the dough underneath might end up uncooked.
  • Hot dogs are precooked, but if you want to ensure they are fully cooked, the internal temperature should reach is 165°F (74°C).
  • If you're using crescent rolls, place one wiener on the shortest side of each triangle and roll up to the opposite point.
  • You can also use Pillsbury Biscuit or Pillsbury Grands. To wrap the hot dog with them, you first need to flatten or stretch them into rectangles or shape them like the crescent rolls for better presentation.
  • For a more golden finish, lightly brush them with high heat cooking oil before air frying.
  • I used a 6-quart Instant Pot Vortex Plus to test the air fryer pigs in a blanket recipe. Cooking time and temperature may vary depending on your air fryer and the number of servings you are making. For optimal results, begin with the lower end of the suggested cooking time.
