You’ll Need
12 cocktail sausages or chipolatas
12 rashers streaky bacon
1 tsp maple syrup or honey
½ tsp black pepper
Optional But Dangerous
Extra bacon
Small pinch chilli flakes
Honey mustard dip
Method
Preheat your air fryer to 200°C.
Wrap each sausage tightly with a rasher of streaky bacon.
Place seam-side down on a board.
Brush lightly with maple syrup or honey.
Season with black pepper.
Arrange the pigs in blankets in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
Air fry at 200°C for 12–15 minutes, turning once halfway through, until the bacon is crisp, golden, and wrapped tightly around the sausages.
For extra Christmas dinner glory, blast them for a final 2 minutes at 205°C.
Remove carefully and allow them to sit for 1 minute before serving.
Serve immediately while hot and dangerously irresistible.
