Here is a crisp, tasty appetizer or snack made from dill pickle spears, ranch dressing mix, and bacon cooked in an air fryer.
YIELD: 16 PICKLES
Ingredients
- 16 dill pickle spears, patted dry
- 16 strips of bacon
- One packet of dry ranch dressing mix
Instructions
Pat pickles dry.
Sprinkle generously with dry ranch mix.
Wrap one whole piece of bacon around each dill pickle spear.
Air fry at 400 degrees for 20 minutes; turn as needed, so the bacon cooks evenly.
Notes
I used perforated parchment paper cut to fit on the air fryer rack to catch bacon drippings. I also wrapped the drip pan with foil for easy clean-up.
My air fryer is fairly small, and I could only do five or six at a time, depending on the size of the pickles. I recommend that you don’t crowd them so the bacon gets crisp, and you can turn them over more easily.
