Instructions
- Place bacon in the air fryer at 350°F for 3-4 minutes or until just slightly cooked and some of the fat has rendered out. Bacon should not be crisp.
- Remove bacon from the air fryer and wipe out any grease in the bottom.
- Dab scallops dry with paper towels and season with olive oil, old bay seasoning and salt & pepper to taste.
- Cut bacon in half (unless your scallops are really large) and wrap each half around one of the scallops. Seal with a toothpick or thread onto short skewers.
- Brush scallops with maple syrup.
- Place scallops into an air fryer at 350°F for 11-13 minutes. Cook just until bacon is crisp and scallop is cooked. Do not overcook.
Notes
- If scallops are really large you might need 1 slice of bacon per scallop. If they are smaller, you may only need 1/2 slice bacon per scallop.
- If scallops are really large you might need 1 slice of bacon per scallop. If they are smaller, you may only need 1/2 slice bacon per scallop.
- Choose scallops that are evenly sized, firm, and fresh-smelling. If using frozen scallops, ensure they're completely defrosted before cooking.
- These can be made ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 24 hours before cooking. If making ahead, cool the partially cooked bacon completely before wrapping the scallops.
