Description

Air Fryer Bagel Dogs are little smokies wrapped in crescent dough and air-fried until golden and crisp. Ready in about 20 minutes, they're an easy, kid-friendly snack for game day, parties, or after school.

Ingredients 

  • 14 ounces little smokies
  • 16 ounces crescent roll dough, 2 8 ounce cans
  • 1 large large egg, for egg wash
  • 2 tablespoons butter, for egg wash, melted unsalted butter
  • 2 Sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or everything bagel seasoning, for topping

Instructions

  • Let the crescent dough come to room temperature. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
  • On a lightly floured surface, unroll the dough and cut it into thin strips, about ½ inch wide.
  • Wrap a strip of dough around each smokie, pinching the ends to seal.
  • Beat the egg and brush it over each wrapped smokie. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or everything bagel seasoning.
  • Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Arrange the bagel dogs in a single layer, not touching, working in batches as needed.
  • Air fry for 8–10 minutes, until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.
  • Let cool a few minutes, then serve with mustard, ketchup, or relish.

Equipment

  • Cooking Spray
  • Parchment Paper, optional

Notes

  • Don't overcrowd the basket — space lets the dough crisp evenly.
  • Smokies cook faster than full hot dogs, so check a couple minutes early.
  • To make full-size bagel dogs, use 8 hot dogs and 1-inch strips, adding a couple minutes to the cook time.
  • Freeze cooked and cooled bagel dogs in an airtight bag; reheat in the air fryer until warmed through.
