Ingredients
Raw sausage patties - you can use either fresh patties or frozen sausage patties. We used pork sausage patties, but you may choose a different type of meat like turkey or chicken.
We choose a 12 ounce package of store brand pre-sliced sausages, so if you use the kind that comes in a tube like Bob Evans original roll sausage or Jimmy Dean, be sure to cut the patties as evenly as possible. Cook times are based on patties that are about ½ inch thick.
Equipment
Instructions
Place sausage patties in the air fryer basket in a single layer. For best results, leave a little bit of space in between them.
If patties are frozen: cook at 350 degrees F for about 5 minutes or until patties are defrosted. Turn the heat up to 400 and cook for about 6 to 8 minutes, flipping at the halfway point. Edges should be slightly browned. You can use a paper towel to blot away any extra grease, if desired.
If patties are fresh: cook for 8-10 minutes at 400 degrees F, flipping halfway through. Edges should be slightly browned. You can use a paper towel to blot away any extra fat, if desired.
Pork sausages should reach an internal temperature of 155 degrees F when fully cooked.
Kitchen tips
Be familiar with your brand and type of air fryer as cook time can vary with different models.
Use parchment paper liners if desired. Using them doesn't affect the cooking time.
