Ingredients

Scale

Sausages

  • 6 sausages of your choice

Instructions

  1. Prepare the sausages: Pierce the sausages a few times all over using a sharp knife. This step is optional but helps release some fat during cooking for better texture and less grease.
  2. Arrange in the air fryer basket: Place the sausages in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overlapping to allow even cooking.
  3. Cook the sausages: Set the air fryer temperature to 180°C (356°F) and cook the sausages for 10 to 15 minutes. Turn the sausages every 5 minutes to ensure even browning and cooking on all sides.
  4. Check doneness: Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the sausages; they should reach 75°C (167°F) to be fully cooked and safe to eat.
  5. Serve: Remove the cooked sausages from the air fryer and serve immediately, either as a side for breakfast or inside buns as a delicious sandwich option.

Notes

  • Pricking the sausages before cooking helps excess fat escape and can improve texture.
  • Turning the sausages during cooking ensures they brown evenly on all sides.
  • Cooking times may vary depending on sausage thickness and air fryer model.
  • Use a meat thermometer for the most accurate doneness check to avoid undercooked or overcooked sausages.
  • You can serve the sausages with your favorite breakfast sides or in buns with mustard, ketchup, or other condiments.
