Air Fryer Bacon Wrapped Hot Dogs with Apple, Maple Slaw

This is hands down my favorite hot dog recipe! Although I am giving you the air fryer directions, these can easily be put on the grill and cooked as well! The slaw can be made in advance and this can easily be made for a crowd. We shared these and EVERYONE that tried them absolutely loved them saying they were the best hot dogs they have ever had. I know that says a lot.  Maybe you have read recipes claiming it’s the best this or that, but I don’t eat hotdogs and don’t like them but I love this recipe.  I will be making it many times through the summer!

8 servings

INGREDIENTS
8 hot dogs
8 slices of bacon
8 hot dog buns
1 package coleslaw mix
1 container of Marie’s coleslaw dressing
1 Granny Smith Apple, diced
1 cup Craisins
2 Tablespoons pure maple syrup
Fresh cracked pepper
Pickled jalapeño peppers-optional

DIRECTIONS
Wrap each slice of bacon around each hot dog. Place 4 of the wrapped hotdogs in the air fryer. Fry at 400 degrees for 9 minutes turn the hotdogs over and fry again for another 9 minutes or until bacon is cooked to your desired crispness. If you want the buns toasted take the hot dogs out a couple minutes early, place the hotdogs in the buns, place them back in the fryer and continue to cook for two more minutes or until desired toast is achieved.
Meanwhile make the slaw by putting the slaw mix in a large bowl, adding the slaw dressing, Craisins, diced apple, maple syrup and cracked pepper. Mix well coating all of the slaw with the dressing.
Top the hot dogs with the slaw and add pickled jalapeños. Serve immediately.

Enjoy!
