  • Set the temperature to 350°F and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Flip the sausages over and continue cooking for another 5-8 minutes until they're fully cooked, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F.
  • Once done, let them rest for 5 minutes to keep all the juices locked in. Serve with hot dog buns and enjoy!

NOTES

  • Nutrition is calculated just for sausages and will depend on the specific brand you'll choose.
  • Avoid piercing holes in the sausage—this isn't a potato! Piercing allows juices to escape during air frying, resulting in a messy bottom and dry sausage.
  • To prevent potential smoking, especially with fattier sausages, place a piece of parchment paper at the bottom of your air fryer to catch drippings. This also makes cleanup easier!
  • To Store. Leftover sausage can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • To Freeze. Freeze cooked sausages for up to 2 months, just like any other cooked meat. If desired, wrap them individually in plastic wrap to prevent sticking.
  • To Reheat. To reheat, simply warm and crisp up the sausages again in the air fryer for a shorter amount of time.
