The only thing about these bacon-wrapped tater tots that you won’t like is how fast they fly off the plate. Of course, we all know that bacon makes everything better, and that’s definitely the case with these delicious appetizers.

Why You’ll Love It

  • They’re more substantial then most appetizers, and you won’t want to eat more than a handful, the convenient bite-sized portions are easy to serve and enjoy at gatherings.
  • They have a very unique flavor thanks to the combination of bacon and the honey sriracha glaze. Everyone will want the recipe!
  • Bacon-wrapped tater tots are simple to prepare, requiring just a few ingredients and minimal cooking time. This makes them a convenient and satisfying appetizer option.

Helpful Tips

  • Don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket. Things cook best in the air fryer if the air can circulate around the food.
  • If the bacon won’t stay wrapped you can secure the bacon ends together with a toothpick.
  • I use a parchment paper round on the bottom of my air fryer to keep them from sticking and it makes for easier clean-up.
  • If your bacon is cooking too fast and looks like it might burn, you can turn down the heat to 320°F and continue cooking.

Ingredients
  

  • 20 tater tots frozen or thawed
  • 10 strips bacon cut in half lengthwise
  • 1/4 teaspoon seasoning salt
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons Sriracha

Instructions
 

  • Put the tater tots in a bowl and sprinkle the seasoning salt evenly over the tots. Go light so you don’t make the tots too salty.
  • Cut the bacon strips in half lengthwise. Wrap one strip around each tater tot. It should go around twice. If it’s longer than that, cut it in half and wrap two tots with one strip. Add the wrapped tots back to the bowl.
  • Mix the honey and sriracha together and drizzle half of it over the tots. Stir to coat. You can secure the bacon ends together with a toothpick, if the bacon doesn’t stay put.
  • Arrange the tater tots in the air fryer basket.
  • Air fryer on 350° F (175°C) for 10-13 minutes, until the bacon is browned and the tots are crispy. You can turn over once in the middle of cooking, if necessary. Be sure to check on them frequently so you don't burn the bacon. Serve with more of the spicy glaze as a dipping sauce.

  1. What kind of bacon do you recommend for this recipe? Would it work with turkey bacon or a thicker cut bacon?
