Step-by-Step Instructions for Making Air Fryer Bacon Wrapped Tater Tots

1. Prepare the Ingredients

  • Begin by thawing the tater tots slightly, making them easier to handle.
  • Cut the bacon strips into thirds. Each piece should be just long enough to wrap around one tater tot.

2. Wrap the Tater Tots

  • Take one piece of bacon and wrap it tightly around a tater tot.
  • If desired, roll the bacon-wrapped tater tot in brown sugar for a sweet and smoky flavor.
  • Secure the bacon with a toothpick, ensuring it stays in place during cooking.

3. Preheat the Air Fryer

  • Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Preheating ensures even cooking and a crispy finish.

4. Arrange and Cook

  • Place the bacon-wrapped tater tots in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Do not overcrowd, as this can affect the crispiness.
  • Cook for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure the bacon is evenly crispy and golden brown.

5. Check for Doneness

  • The tater tots should be crispy, and the bacon should have a rich, golden color. Add an extra minute or two if needed for additional crispiness.
