Ingredients
  

  • 15 frozen sausage links (nutritional information is for Brown 'N Serve Breakfast Turkey Sausage)
  • Raw sausage patties
  • Meat thermometer
  • Air fryer basket
  • Any type of breakfast sausage (frozen raw, fresh raw, or patties)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Place the frozen sausage links in a single layer in the air fryer basket. If using raw sausage patties, you can add them now too, ensuring they don't overlap.
  • These instructions work for any type of breakfast sausage: frozen raw links, fresh raw links, or fresh raw patties.
  • There is no need to preheat your air fryer for this recipe.
  • Do NOT spray your air fryer basket with cooking spray, as this can damage the non-stick coating.
  • Cook the sausage at 400°F (200°C) for 8-10 minutes, or until nicely browned and cooked through. For patties, flip them halfway through.
  • If cooking sausage from raw (that is NOT pre-cooked), always check the internal temperature with a meat thermometer. Sausage is safe to eat once it reaches a minimum of 160°F (71°C).

Notes

- Use a meat thermometer to ensure raw sausage reaches an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket; cook in batches if necessary for even browning.
- If cooking raw sausage patties, flipping them halfway through ensures even cooking and browning.
