Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 5 raw sausages
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (optional, for extra crisp)
  • pinch salt (optional)
  • pinch black pepper (optional)
  • 1-2 smoked sausages (pre-cooked, optional)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Method
 

  1. If using raw sausages, poke each one several times with a fork. If using pre-cooked smoked sausages, poke each one several times with a fork to allow fat to render.
  2. Arrange the sausages in a single layer in your air fryer basket, ensuring they are not touching. If using, lightly toss sausages with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  3. Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 12-14 minutes for raw sausages, or 8-10 minutes for pre-cooked smoked sausages.
  4. Flip the sausages halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning and crispiness on all sides.
  5. For raw sausages, check the internal temperature with a meat thermometer; they are safe to eat once they reach a minimum of 160°F (71°C).
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy your perfectly crispy, juicy air fryer sausages!

Notes

- Use sausages with a good fat content for the best crispiness.
- Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket; cook in batches if necessary.
- Adjust cooking time slightly based on the thickness of your sausages.
