Description

Bacon Wrapped Pineapple in the Air Fryer is sweet, salty, and is a unique and tasty appetizer for parties and events. Fresh pineapple wrapped in irresistible bacon and air fried to perfection.

Ingredients 

  • 1 pound bacon, sliced in half
  • 1 pineapple, cut into chunks
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoons fresh ginger
  • 1/3 cup ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon sriracha sauce

Instructions

  • Start by cutting your bacon in half so it fits in the Air Fryer Basket. Set the temperature to 390 degrees F, air fryer setting, and cook for 5 minutes.
  • While the bacon is cooking, mix the ketchup, honey, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, ginger, and Sriracha sauce in a small bowl. Transfer to a small saucepan, and simmer, until thickened (about 8 to 10 minutes)
  • Then roll your bacon around the pineapple chunk, use a toothpick to secure them together. Brush with your sauce, air fry for another 3 to 5 minutes, until the bacon is crispy!
  • Plate, serve, and enjoy!

Equipment

  • Air Fryer
  • Toothpicks

Notes

  • Flexible recipe. You can use either fresh or canned pineapples.
  • Cut your bacon so that it fits flat in the air fryer.
  • Prep these ahead of time, then reheat them right before your guests arrive.
  • Skip preheating. You do not need to preheat your air fryer for this recipe.
  • Don't add too much to your basket. For best results, do not crowd your air fryer basket. Otherwise, your bacon wrapped pineapple bites won't crisp up correctly!
  • Serve hot or cold. This recipe is delicious either way, so serve it however is convenient for you!
  • Adjust time. If you use a thicker cut of bacon, you may need to adjust the cooking time.
  • Soak your toothpicks. To ensure your toothpicks don't burn in the air fryer, I suggest soaking them in water for 10-15 minutes before using.
