Ingredients

  • 12 breakfast sausages raw

Instructions

  • If the sausages are linked, cut them apart then place them in a single layer in the air fryer basket leaving a bit of room between them for air circulation.
  • Place the basket in the air fryer and set it to 390°F. Cook the sausages for 9-12 minutes for thawed sausages, or 12-15 minutes for frozen sausages until they are fully cooked. Turn halfway through to ensure even cooking.
  • Remove the sausages from the basket and serve.

Notes

Sausages are fully cooked when no longer pink in the middle or when an instant-read thermometer inserted in the middle of the sausage reads 160°F for pork sausages or 165°F for poultry sausages. 
Cooking time will vary slightly depending on the size of the sausages.
