❓ Frequently Asked Questions About Bacon Wrapped Lil Smokies
1. Can I make these in an air fryer?
Yes, you can. Cook them at 380°F for about 10-12 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy. You may need to work in batches.
2. Do I have to use toothpicks?
No, toothpicks are optional. If you place them seam side down on the baking sheet, they usually stay wrapped without them.
3. Can I prepare these ahead of time?
Yes, you can assemble them a day ahead. Keep them covered in the refrigerator, then add the brown sugar and bake just before serving.
4. What can I use instead of brown sugar?
You can use maple syrup or a honey glaze. Just brush it on before baking.
5. How do I get the bacon extra crispy?
For extra crispy bacon, you can broil them for the last 1-2 minutes of cooking. Keep a close eye on them so they do not burn.
