Why this recipe is so good
- Super easy and fun to make.
- Guaranteed crowd pleaser at any event.
- Family friendly and picky eater approved.
What you’ll need
- Frozen corn dogs: Use your favorite brand. While I used Aldi’s brand for this recipe, I’ve also made it with other brands like Statefair, Foster farms and Bar-S.

How long cook bacon wrapped corn dogs in the air fryer
I air fried these corn dogs at 380°F for 10 mins with my Cosori dual blaze air fryer. If you find that your bacon is not as crispy as you’d like or that the hot dogs are not cooked through, feel free to add more time as needed starting with 1 to 2 mins.

In the air fryer

Place bacon wrapped corn dogs in the air fryer basket. Set temperature to 380°F and air fry for 10 mins, flip at the 8th minute mark.
In the oven
Preheat Oven to 400°F (200°C) Arrange bacon wrapped corn dogs seam side down on a baking sheet fitted with a rack.
Place in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 23 mins until the corn dogs are warmed through and bacon is crispy.
How to serve + best dipping sauce for corn dogs
What better way to enjoy these dressed up hot dogs than to serve them with your favorite corn dog dipping sauce. Our number 1 and 2 are ketchup and mustard.
Air frying Tips
- No preheat needed. Place bacon wrapped corn dogs seam side down.
- Bacon should be at room temperature
- Cook for up to 8 mins before flipping to ensure the bacon sets and stays secure.
- If using mini corn dogs, you will need to cut each bacon into thirds and you will likely need to secure them with toothpicks.

Yes you can. Whatever air you have including Instant vortex or Gourmia would work. Just keep a close eye as you might need to adjust cooking time.
No you do not need to use toothpicks or cocktail sticks to secure the bacon. Placing the wrapped corn dogs seam side down and cooking for about 8 mins before flipping should keep the corn dogs wrapped.
The pack I use comes in half a dozen pers pack of frozen corn dogs so I used 6 slices of bacon.
Absolutely! However you would need to cut each strip of bacon in thirds and you would need to secure the wrapped mini corn dogs cocktail sticks or toothpicks.
